What I found so funny about the chicken strip story was that he was so concerned about wasting 1 honey mustard packet but threw away a whole shirt afterwards lol
AND he seemed to think his wife was mad that he stained his shirt and smelled like mustard, not that he was dipping his chicken strips into his shirt mustard 😂😂😂
The pregnant wife, full of hormones, hungry and with cravings, cried. The husband, eating well and how much he wants, no hormones at all, threatened divorce and says he hates her. But she's unhinged????
This is so precise 👏 plus, she is looking to him as the future dad of this baby to be ready for the chaos and emotional Rollercoaster that comes along with parenting. He is not a stable, supportive person.
All 3 lauren justin n morgan are insane what do they mean he already sacrificed? What did he sacrificed nothing the bad food us still in the home just in anither room n hes still eating junk at restaurants ithink for a couple months he could eat healthy big deal
@@tiffmitch702 and at the point he threatened divorce he literally hadn't given up on anything. The fight was what made them go to therapy and the therapist said he needed to compromise a bit too. The wife might have overreacted bc well, she's pregnant and in physical hell (been there) but it's no excuse to go that low. And to carry that afterwards calling it hate, THAT is unhinged to me
@@j0yfulblessings right? Like, imagine if this woman suffers from ppd. He'll divorce her and tell everyone she's crazy like he's already doing in that reddit post. He's also probably expecting to keep living his life like normal, going out, watching his Netflix even if the mom is exhausted and the baby is crying bc he can't "sacrifice" - god forbit if that child ever has some sort of food restriction. But I bet by that time this woman will realize she has a husband that resents her for expecting him to be supportive during difficult times and will dump his ass.
The husband in the story has the emotional bandwidth of a maladjusted teenager. Also, while we can recognize his trauma, the time to deal with that is before you have children. Too many people leave trauma unresolved, and they don’t confront it, or even acknowledge it until they become parents. That needs to change.
I personally don’t care about breast feeding in public in ANY capacity. But what’s weird is being mad that someone’s wedding photos didn’t feature you breast feeding.
She was upset her sister was treating her so poorly. She didn't even get to sit with the family. If you read the post op didn't say she wanted pictures of her nursing. The sister was upset because she was excluded from all the picture.
@@sheenabudd925you’re right I forgot about the part where OP said she seated her away “in case she started breastfeeding”. I never thought OP wasn’t the AH, I just think the sister should also be aware and courteous of boundaries. But based on OP’s post (which could be a lie as we only have one POV, and OP being disgusted by breastfeeding is enough motive to lie) the sister likes to push boundaries, and test societal norms. I mean of course she is going to breastfeed during a long ceremony and reception. I wonder if OP even tried talking to her. If OP had a convo with her sister beforehand tho, if the OP asked her sister to breastfeed under a privacy shawl or something, would that have been enough? Overall I think a conversation about boundaries should happen. Based on the post it doesn’t seem like it has, we are just given a general assumption from OP that the sister wouldn’t listen.
@@sheenabudd925she was excluded from pictures bc she was probably breastfeeding the whole time lol the photographer even had to ask the sister if she could just step away bc she's in the crowd breastfeeding away when they're trying to take pictures. I'm sure she would've had pics taken if she wasn't breastfeeding bc that was the only issue about it
@@sheenabudd925 no where did it say she was excluded from all photos. The photographer asked her to leave photos when she had her boobies out. The photographer wouldn’t have told her to move if she was dressed.
I'm the mother of three adorable girls and I had gestational diabetes every time. It got worse each time and the risk of it not going away after giving birth gets higher each time. I didn't eat any sugar, very little carbohydrates, changed the type of flour I used to cook and so on. My husband asked me each time he wanted to eat something I couldn't: "Darling, would you mind me eating this?". I never told him not to. Sometimes as a surprise I even cooked dishes for him I couldn't eat myself. I knew he loved them and he never asked for them, just to support me. For me it was enough knowing that he cared enough to ask, instead of just doing it anyway. I never even mentioned me not wanting him to or anything. He started asking on his own, just because he's thinking about how I might feel. He supported me through all three pregnancies and now each time I mention how parts of my body changed, for example veins showing on my legs, he responds with: "Those are badges of honor for you to have given me three beautiful children. Be proud of that, just like I am proud of you. I love each and every change you went through for us." That's how partners should be supporting each other in my opinion.
That is a sweet relationship you two have and absolutely the way that this situation should be handled!! I think both of them in that reddit story are a little unhinged and in need of therapy together and separately
Y’all are SO wrong on the pregnancy one. First- A he’s the asshole for bringing up DIVORCE to his pregnant partner and saying he hates her?!? But she’s the unhinged one… okay sure! Second -you don’t test for gestational diabetes until at least 20 weeks which means it’s not even the whole 9 months he has to give it up eating in his home. Third -you are beyond exhausted, hormonal, you crave things like CRAZY so yeah her crying is COMPLETELY understandable and not unhinged at all (she could be disappointed that the first pregnancy is and it isn’t turning out like she pictured- or it could be that she just isn’t feeling all the changes and not being SUPPORTED LIKE she said… this probably isn’t the only thing she isn’t feeling supported over) Fourth- you have to give up and change SO much when you are pregnant… no deli meat, low caffeine, no alcohol, no sushi, no hot tubs and so on and so forth. And then adding gestational diabetes on top with no sugar no carbs omg I would have died. He is 100 percent the asshole! He can go 20 weeks without eating SHIT that she can’t while SHE is carrying HIS child!!!!
She is unhinged. I am 25 weeks pregnant. My husband has had seafood, drank, eaten subway. Those are MY restrictions not HIS. She’s restricting what he eats REGARDLESS of whether it’s in front of her or not. Being pregnant is not a fucking hall pass to be a giant controlling bitch for 9 months. PERIOD
I think the last time this came up she got them switched too lol. My brain does that all the time where it flips two things. We knew what she meant though haha
Omg That donut man literally said he hates his pregnant wife for ruining his birthday. They SHOULD get a divorce. Hating someone is a deal breaker. She deserves to raise a child with someone who doesn't hate her.
This! Even though I disagreed with him, I understood him up until that point. He lost me. You can't take those words and feelings back, just like he couldn't take back the threat of divorce.
I love you so much Morgan! But the 7 month pregnant woman with gestational diabetes is not "unhinged" for crying when she saw the Cheesecake Factory receipt. She's completely hormonal. As a Mom of 4 who had gestational diabetes once, I felt for her. She definitely didn't handle it well, but when you're that far into a pregnancy, crying is frequently the only thing you can do. Your body is just too busy to let you think logically about things.
I agree. I have never been pregnant but I thought it's pretty well known that pregnant women cry at the drop of the hat. And the husband saying her crying is punishing him? Like no she's crying and rather than having empathy he's centering himself. I doubt she's punishing him she's just crying and she probably can't help it.
@@koripeterson7310 Yeah, from what I’ve heard crying tends to just happen when you’re pregnant, even when you might not be all that upset. Although I think the majority of people can’t cry on command so I tend to assume that if someone’s crying (pregnant or not) then it’s probably because of something important to them and that it’s best to ask them if they need anything or if they want to be alone for a minute to collect themselves and not just focus on myself
When you are pregnant cravings are so intense! Its completely different from when you are not pregnant. OP is the asshole, because in the beginning of his post he wrote about all the food that he was eating in front of her. He could have cut back a bit, or from the beginning hidden it. Its like he wanted to make her feel bad, or he really is that dense. When you are pregnant you are also super emotional, and anything will make you cry. Being pregnant and uncomfortable and also not being able to eat any of the foods you are craving is torture! He could have handle the situation better, in my opinion. Its like he was looking for her to come at him, by eating in front of her.
100%%%% I hate their take on it. None of them have kids or have been pregnant. So they can’t know what it feels like to be pregnant and want something you literally can’t have at all. And her crying about it makes sense
Story 5: I’m an esthetician of 10 years and a waxer, and when I tell you I’ve seen it all, I’ve seen it ALL. My mom is also an esthetician. I have waxed her, she has waxed me. There’s nothing weird about it. I’ve waxed my best friends. I literally couldn’t even tell you what anyone’s hoohah looked like, just because I’ve seen so many and when you’re on a certain level of professionalism, you kind of blackout and are only focused on getting the hair, and keeping the service as professional as possible. It would be extremely inappropriate to talk about anyone’s business, outside of the service.
I don’t have the same experience but my mom was a labor & delivery nurse for 25 years so if my mom was to get into waxing I’d probably let her wax me. However I’d probably be kinda uncomfortable with one of my friends moms lol
my lil sister is a waxer. she waxes me and a good chunk of my cousins and even some of my friends. Its a professional experience when in the room. Shouldnt be weird unless they are making it weird. No way waxers are talking about their customers
im confused about the initial reaction from them like damn why would the mom talk about what her vagina looks like after… and i have never gotten a wax but thinking about going to a stranger or my mom i would pick my mom
Came here to say the same thing. I watched my mom and my sister. Also, it's true that you really don't remember what peoples vaginas look like after they leave.
i would also like to add i’m far more comfortable with my mom than some stranger! i’ve struggled with excessive body hair my whole life and my mom used to remove my lower back hair for me so i wouldn’t be embarrassed to go to someone else at 14. it really strengthened my relationship with my mother.
Morgan thank you so much for using your platform to speak out against the atrocities happening in Gaza right now. You have more courage than many MANY other celebrities and creators that have the following to make a real difference. Part of why I watch this show is bc I feel like, if I knew you all irl, I'd really like and respect you as people and this only further solidified that sentiment. ❤
i cannot wrap my brain around threatening to divorce your PREGNANT wife for almost ANY reason. pregnancy is a physically grueling experience for some people and only one partner has to experience it. imagine going through all that pain and your partner cant even quit eating cheesecake factory in solidarity with you. shes going to be alone in raising that child because her partner is so selfish and unwilling to make changes for her comfort. she will have 2 children, not one
There are reasons to divorce pregnant people acting like they can do no wrong is not good they can be abusive and violent cheating and many other things but she is trying to control what he eats and and it being horrid to him when he eats what she wants he is eating out of her sight it's not like he's rubbing it in her face
Seriously how hard is it for this man to eat healthy with his PREGNANT wife for 9 months of his miserable life. I can’t even watch this fking episode beyond the “he’s done more than enough”
Story 3: Mentioning divorce, not being supportive/ of her diet for the health of THEIR BABY, truly believing the only problem is that he's eating food she can't and missing the principle, HATING his wife STILL, believing this is a "you problem" that shouldn't affect him, bring up his trauma to validate his part in this. He is definitely the AH.
This. I totally see why one of the commentators brough up "baby boy" thing, it's more so not about OP's behaviour, but his attitude and how he writes the story.
Yeah, but it's like they said, both of then have issues. He could, and should, be more supportive of her, but she is not doing herself any favors either.
@@mallorybybee6560 sorry what did I say that was wrong? He is a total AH sounds like she is reacting to his unsupportive nature and I feel so sorry for her probably feeling trapped with him now they are having a child. Not that my medical info really matters but I'm pre-diabetic, eat healthy already but got to cut out more and work on other aspects. I have zero medical support as barely got results back so I can strongly relate to her situation minus the pregnancy but for me it's for life
I was screaming at you guys inside my car when you were saying he should eat whatever and that he is making a sacrifice. A sacrifice????????? him????????? she is pregnant with his child. I was so blown away about how bad of a partner that dude is. I'm happy you agreed with me later on tho hahahhaha
100% guy complains about not being able to eat what he wants and how hard it is for him, then has no empathy for her not being able to do that because she could DIE.
Hahahaha I’m so sorry!!!! I didn’t realize it was from and during pregnancy I wanted to redo when I realized 🥲😭😂 the live shows were really helpful to have y’all yell real time. 😂
She's literally sacrificing herself for HIS BABY. There are several social media accounts dedicated to the possible side effects of pregnancy, he is lucky that all he has to do is eat his special food somewhere not at home.
story 5: i really don’t think it’s a huge deal! if her mom didn’t literally own a wax shop then it would be weird but she obviously is a professional waxer so why would she go somewhere else? she’s probably much more comfortable with her mom seeing her than a stranger honestly. i think it also depends on her relationship with her mom, some relationships are just closer than others
Story 4- that wasn’t closure and revenge wasn’t needed, that man had 23 years to get over that woman and go to therapy. sending a picture was so gross, he thought that girl was gonna be his child. it’s disgusting and I can’t understand why he felt the need to share this story if he knows it’s wrong.
I completely agree. When he first mentioned the ages, I immediately said out loud gross. And this is coming from someone who has a 4 year age gap between me and my partner. And he refers to her as "kid" gave me the ick🤢
agreed. closure never comes from other people. that’s something you find within yourself. 23 years is a really long time to be hung up on this, even if he “wasn’t looking for revenge” like dude get a grip, grow up, and be the responsible adult in the situation. that girl is so beyond damaged and this is only going to make it worse.
@@gabinesureferring to her as kid in the story immediately made me cringe. if he hadn’t said that like yeah it’s weird because of the situation, but the fact that he called her kid is just gross and creepy
It literally disgusts me that he wants to see other people nude, meanwhile claiming he loves Morgan?? That’s disgusting. I would rather throw up than see anyone else naked FOR ENTERTAINMENT, and Ive only been with my man for 11 months. I can’t believe he’d want to do that.
I’m 28 1/2 weeks pregnant and it’s absolutely insane to me that pregnant women are expected to give up sooooo many things for 9 months or else they’re a “bad mom” and yet the fathers can’t manage to do similar???? She has to have a stricter diet in order to keep herself and THEIR child healthy but he can’t make that change too for a few months? Getting to still eat what he wants but hiding it is NOT a sacrifice. Her sacrificing her entire being to grow his child IS a major sacrifice and the very least he can do is change his diet for a couple months to help make her feel supported. Like that’s truly the very least you can do as a soon to be father. You’re doing nothing else to contribute to growing your child. At least support your partner who is doing allll the work even if that means sacrificing some of the things you like. She can’t even lay on her freaking back to sleep without being told she’s going to k*ll her child and this dude can’t go without some donuts and cheesecake?! F*ck him. Sorry..I’m super frustrated by the audacity of this “man” lol. She was diagnosed at 7 months. It’s not even 9 months of this change. He can’t go 2 godd*nm months without threatening divorce over junk food?! What a loser.
Forreal!! Just got back from an appointment where my OB is telling me my blood sugars are still too high with me eating a strict diet no cheating or anything AND taking insulin and she’s telling me I could kill my baby if I step out of line at all. The stress on top of not being able to eat ANYTHING I crave is ridiculously difficult. 37 weeks and due any day now but it’s been soooo hard
Oh my gosh! Thinking of you through such a stressful time. I can’t stand the language some OBs use when talking to pregnant women. Its fear mongering half the time and then they turn around and tell you stress is bad too. Like, YOURE THE ONE STRESSING ME OUT! 😅
THIS! My husband stopped drinking in solidarity with me (occasionally I’ve given him the green light to go ahead, like his birthday, new years ect: but he never asks to drink). And we’ve had me eating REALLY strict (all organic, no sugar unless it’s fruit, high protein and high iron, NO artificial food coloring etc.) That being said, he’s living it with me. He drank probably 4 doctor pepper a day prior and hasn’t had one in a couple months. He understands he could never expect me to be so strict on myself ESPECIALLY with everything else I’m sacrificing to grow his baby; and then turn around and eat like crap. WE made a lifestyle change for OUR baby and that’s how it should be. I know I’m one of the lucky ones, and I can’t imagine how hard it would be to have GB and an unsupportive partner on top of it all. I cried for 20 minutes once because it was 10pm and I had to wait until morning for my watermelon. Having to wait until DELIVERY sounds like a new level of torture. And THEN to have her douchbag husband eat her craving and not even be smart enough to hide the receipt is like a slap in the face. Then he bullies her by treating divorce like he even has a CLUE what she’s enduring. Pathetic.
It wasn’t just a box of donuts or Cheesecake Factory. He said he eats cookies, ice cream, cheese, McDonald’s, etc. So he was flaunting it like in reference to Lauren’s wine comment. Also how much junk food do you have if you need a whole fridge? And it’s not 9 months. It’s 4 or 5 months when you get diagnosed. Also, there is more than just alcohol that pregnant women give up. Deli meat, some seafood, all sushi, steak other than well done, soft cheeses, unpasteurized food, too much caffeine, precut fruits and veggies, herbal tea, soft serve, LEFTOVERS (risk for listeria), and more
@@zippityzoop1478 It's not absolute - if they are freshly cut fruit in the restaurant (with hygiene standards) it's safe - we're talking about fruit that's left out for hours where flies and coughs might have brought germs to it. And if leftovers are properly heated up they are also safe. Everyone has different boundaries. I was super strict at first and as I researched and learned throughout my first pregnancy, I loosened up some rules and was more discerning as I knew the nuances. :) All the best to you in your future endeavours!
Right? I feel bad for his future baby. It’s gonna grow up with a father that takes everything personally and holds grudges over petty stuff. The mom is hormonal and pregnant and can’t excited control her body or mind with how extreme she feels. She’s carrying his baby!!! He can’t even support her for a few months with cleaner eating and some empathy? It’s not that serious like boohooo he can’t have cheese cake factory and Netflix while his wife incubates another human and is at risk of getting worse from her diabetes. She’s literally risking her health and life to stay in line to birth a baby
He said his pregnant wife was chubby. I f hope he meant before but even if ….. dude wtffffff!?!?!? His behavior is disrespectful, no matter the circumstances.
@@cierra247 yep. He's trying to blame her for the gestational diabetes even though the placenta actually forms from the make dna so most gestational diabetes actually comes from the man
Donut guy sounded psychotic. Talking about his food insecurity as a kid doesn’t make sense. It’s not like his wife made him calorie restrict. She just restricted what he could eat in their home.
The rock story reminded me of the post about the dad getting mad every time the mom would collect another mug. After their divorce, her new boyfriend built a display wall for all of her mugs.
Maybe he just had a bad day? Like when you hear some info or someone says something to you that just wrecks your whole mood. He seems just a little tired or stressed
tbh i hear a lot of youtubers talk about how they dont watch their own videos (same with actors not watching their own shows, its weird to hear ur own voice back and see urself), like lauren probably doesnt listen to every single podcast, maybe one here and there. i also feel like with adult friendships you arent always that in touch with friends, so its probably the kind of thing where morgan hasnt mentioned to her off camera before or lauren just didnt hear it in an episode. doesnt mean shes a bad friend!
On the waxing question, my mother is a nurse. I’ve asked her any “embarrassing” question without fail, and she always holds the conversations professionally. I think as long as your parents are respectful and professional in terms of how they go about it, including confidentiality, there is no shame, especially when you’re saving money
The title makes it sound so bad, i was so worried it was going to be about a child or younger person being forced to by their parents but if everyone's an adult and cool w it then it's not big deal!
Yeah i agree, I wouldn’t have an issue with my mom waxing me especially if it was her job 🤷🏽♀️ but I guess it really just depends your comfort level and relationship you have with your mom.
I had gestational diabetes with both of my pregnancies. The first time, I really really struggled with it and had daily mental breakdowns over not being able to eat what I want, but also not being able to eat when you want. It sucks when you are hungry and you just want an apple but you just tested 2 hours after your meal and your blood sugar is high. So now in spite of being 30 weeks pregnant and being hungry you have to wait. It is a new kind of torture to know that all you want is freaking watermelon but knowing that if you eat it, you are hurting your baby. I would never order my husband to stick to such a strict diet but I asked him to not eat carbs in front of me, and if he did, I didn’t want to know about it. I did give him a free pass on holidays. To me that husband is a massive ahole.
I think so too, I mean you’re going through so much, a healthy pregnancy is already complicated enough and with the emotional and physical toll on the gestational diabetes, it’s a lot… I can’t imagine being in that position and also having this situation with the person who’s supposed to be there for you the most
Theres studies that show porn or explicit images affects the love and attraction men have for their partner. Its not good for your brain or relationship at all.
Unless you’ve been pregnant DO NOT speak on how they act lol. Hormones get crazy during pregnancy and I didn’t even recognize myself when I was pregnant. I was crying uncontrollably over a lot of pointless stuff. 😂😂
I am heated about the gestational diabetes one. He’s an asshole. 1. How dare you use the word divorce in a fight over food with your PREGNANT wife. You don’t deserve to be yelled at but it’s so not ok to hold that over someone’s head to get them to change their behavior (which is be mad at all that he was totally insensitive before the therapist talked to him) 2. Gestational diabetes is temporary. It’s a really hard adjustment, normal diabetes is usually kind of gradual. Gestational means immediate diet changes, multiple needles every day, and the threat of hurting your baby if you do it wrong. It’s a lot of emotion on top of discomfort. She needs temporary support for a condition caused by something for both of them. 3. Policing food is different than what she’s doing. She’s begging for support. He’s making it clear it’s more important for you to eat than to support her. 4. Pregnancy is a level of exhaustion that I’ve never felt before. Having a newborn doesn’t compare. I was SO much more exhausted when I was pregnant. Sure her reactions may be “a little much” but when you’re that exhausted and frustrated those emotions are so overwhelming. 5. Exercising doesn’t decrease your blood sugar immediately. Over time it does…but gestational diabetes will be over for her in 2-3 months and honestly exercising won’t make enough of a difference that it would change her dietary restrictions at all. 6. If I were her I’d see his inability to be supportive now as a sign of how little support he’s going to give as a dad. Part of her is probably panicking and thinking oh my god I’m gonna have to do everything for this baby with almost no support. It doesn’t matter if it’s not true and that he may be an incredible dad once the kid is here…that’s totally what this is pointing to and I, as a pregnant woman would be so worried. Dudes allowed to eat what he wants and make his own choices. But he’s an asshole. He should accept his title or change his behavior.
Holy crap I just heard the edit…it’s a freaking donut. You clearly have issues around food to be that impacted by her saying you shouldn’t eat it. And it wasn’t just about the donut. It was about the total lack of support up until that points To say you hated her is AWFUL. She at least has an excuse because she’s exhausted and has hormones wreaking havoc on her brain. Is what she did ok? No. I’ll repeat that. What she did was not ok. But your reactions are so out of pocket and your lack of empathy or understanding just communicates how little you support her now.
All I could think through his whole post and update was “cry about it” I know I am lacking major empathy in saying this here if his food insecurity issues are as bad as he says but CRY ABOUT IT. It’s temporary. She’s not asking him to starve himself. She’s asking for support. Ugh he’s a major asshole and baby like that one comment said
story 3: your partner now has to dramatically change her diet for 9 months, to ensure you BOTH have a healthy baby. the least you can do is not openly consuming the foods she can’t have, in front of her - birthday or not, she is struggling, had communicated to OP prior to the donuts that she was struggling and he still carried a dozen donuts into that house, that she can’t touch. she doesn’t want you to suffer but, clearly needs better moral support with her diet. not all, but plenty of partners stop drinking as a couple, when one of them is pregnant. this is a “would I be the AH for taking my newly sober friend to happy hour.” kinda story. like yes, OP YTA for not listening to your wife when the food problem made her sob on multiple occasions. edit: heard the update and he gets worse- he threw any chance of repairing his birthday in the trash when he mentioned divorce- he took a small fight to all the way to hell and is now playing the victim. “you’re gonna raise this child alone now, because you’re emotional and hurt my fee fees on my birthday over some donuts” is what he said when he mentioned divorce. he is so self concerned it’s pathetic.
She wouldn’t have been diagnosed right away. More than likely it’s like 5 months without something. I personally would give a pass for birthday being a special occasion, but otherwise he shouldn’t have food that she can’t in the house.
OP is TA and I don't agree on takes criticising "baby boy" comment because of the OP's edit. He does sound literally like that, with his hysterical reaction as an answer to his wife's (may also be inadequate, but that's not the point here) reaction. Tbh I've got feelings like they're both pregnant from hearing this. With such an attitude from OP this marriage is just doomed anyway. Its literally "you're NTA for what you're asking about, you're TA though for how you wrote about it".
@@hayamirin6795 there could have been a conversation on the donuts, had he been somewhat supportive before hand. but him expecting a new outcome and reaction when he did nothing to make supportive change in the first place, is crazy- i’m not shocked she freaked over it. also he had options to still enjoy his donut, tell your boss or co-workers you can’t have sweets in the house right now and leave em at the office and eat them there, or leave them in the trunk of your car, really anything.
OMG! I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that. He seemed annoyed and/or uncomfortable. I still think him and Lauren are having an affair. How did Lauren not know what Morgan wanted for her wedding too.
@@dhruvbatra9548 I def wouldn’t go as far as saying they’re having an affair or all that 🤣 and yes they were joking I just think he was disrespectful the way he was saying things.
The 🌽 stuff in the beginning was a bit odd. I used to be like you guys and not care until it caused issues within my relationship. The addiction caused my partner to decline intimacy with me and choose to watch 🌽 instead. Months of this and promises to stop (due to the lack of intimacy within the relationship) just to find out he was like, like Justin said, still watching it hurt my feelings very much. It got to the point where it became a “me or the 🌽” issue. So if I did find out he was still watching, the relationship would be over. People with addictions can’t just dabble occasionally so hearing Justin say that no one stops watching it was sad for me to hear. Of course, this isn’t to say that Justin can’t have his own opinions or whatever but I’d just challenge him to stop watching for a month. If it’s a struggle to stop or your first reaction is immediately “no”, maybe question why that is. Also, there have been MANY studies on the effects of 🌽 on the brain, maybe look into it. It’s eye opening.
Wax specialist here! We are very professional from the beginning with our guests to the very end! We talk about anything and everything with the clients comfort level of discussion. Like gynos, doctors, and other professionals we do see everything and are immune from it. We don’t blast peoples business or bodies out of respect for them and because they told us in private. Even with my coworkers we don’t talk about each others bodies when we wax each other. There is still professionalism while we are cracking jokes as if we are friends! As a waxer we help ease their minds of the pain while making them vent, laugh or be on their phone! Waxing a family member is no biggie to some of us and some other waxers don’t wax certain parts of the body for a family member. It’s all about preference and still remaining respectful and staying in the boundary zone!
thank you for this comment!!! other esthetician here and i felt so disrespected by their word usage the entire time. if OP doesn’t want to whatever boundaries but everyone was a bit judgmental and presumptuous assuming PROFESSIONALS aren’t going to be PROFESSIONAL
The honey mustard story response was driving me INSANE. What normal person would EVER DIP THEIR CHICKEN ONTO THEIR SHIRT. even at home what the hell, now yall gave me a new thing on my ick list. “Dipping chicken tenders into sauce on their shirt” 💀
Omg yes! If I saw someone doing that AT A RESTAURANT I would be flabbergasted. Like I get we all forgot what manners are after covid, but for sanitary reasons?!?
I know you and Justin are cool with each other watching corn. But when Justin started straight gushing when discussing other womens nudes I felt physically ill. With him in the next beat talking about y’all’s wedding, literal chills went to my soul. That was straight whiplash.
Story 5.. when she said “parents” in the title I thought she was going to say the Dad too. I personally wouldn’t mind if it was my mom, I would probably feel more comfortable with it being her. And it’s.. a business. Her mom does that as her job. Plus I’m sure her mom isn’t charging her which is even better. A free wax? Sign me up.
Yes, if that wasn't the mom's line of work then yeah weird, but she does that for a living she probably is desensitized to seeing genitals. I would rather have my mom who I know and trust that a complete stranger all up on my business, plus it's free!
My parents were in the medical field and many of their coworkers had kids around my age (small town people what's up), if it was weird for us to potentially have a parent or friends parent take care of something in an intimate area, a visit to the hospital could get really tricky 😂. Also, I would 10,000% rather the context being "I need a wax" than "I need someone who has known me since I was a child because (insert junk related medical disaster here)"
I think some people get weird about bodies. I grew up with a single mum and when it's hot in the summer we'd just be in our underwear. Also the mum has seen it, touched it, cleaned it more times than she can count.
Totally agree! My mom made me and has the same parts. Not weird at all. I think it also has to do with your upbringing. I could understand the weirdness if you had conservative parents who kept things private. But personally, as an adult, I’ve been changing in the same room with my mom or if I had a questionable bump, there isn’t another person I’d feel more comfortable with looking at it than my mom.
I think this whole episode he seems so off. I know I don’t know any of these people at the end of the day but he just seemed so off and like lowkey tuned out… idk
The third story was very.. something. Why call a 7 month pregnant woman who cries over a takeout receipt “unhinged”, but the dude who literally offered divorce and said he hates his wife to this day over a donut argument and that “ruined his whole birthday” needs to feel validated and can’t be called “baby boy” cause it’s disrespectful? Like, yall can’t call a hormonal woman crazy basically, but not have that same energy with the husband who can eat whatever he wants and isn’t surging with hormones that literally affect your mood. It’s a very weird double standard, and kinda just seems sexist to be real with yall. No offense intended, just sharing my opinion.
@@HikingTails yeah, I get that and I hope that’s the case. I just hate seeing this rhetoric come from other women themselves. This just kinda feels like attacking the pregnant and breastfeeding women and I always gotta come out to defend my fellow moms lol
i honestly felt the exact same, and i don't think its just their age. its a mindset that allows boys to be boys and women to be kept in line. it's THEIR baby, not just hers, its her body that's suffering but they chose this path together, and if she ended up saying fuck it and had a donut since he couldn't just empathise a little- i'm sure he would be pissed claiming she is endangering their baby while he is literally making his wife sob, and causes unnecessary stress and pain for her. atp if i were in the wife's position i might just take him up on that offer to divorce because he's showing his true colours right now, and he can have all the donuts he wants in peace. its like he (and the podcast) can't grasp that the same way he misses eating in and having snacks its a billion times worse for her, and yet he is still complaining while he DOES still eat all the shit he wants.
When reading it, it really seemed like she is being verbally abusive. In my head it reminded me of another story we read where the OP called his wife out and said something along the lines of ‘being pregnant isn’t an excuse for being abusive’. They’re both dealing with big, important things. I think all are wrong.
I feel like this has happened before and its always just comes down to plain ignorance. Of course this woman looks 'unhinged' when you know not nearly enough about pregnancy and its effects. Its a shame because the husband did not deserve not close to as much grace as he was given.
4:33 I was honestly very disgusted with how Justin talked about nudes and how he basically said no matter how your partner feels, the other person will still watch porn and look at nudes they will just hid it. It's definitely giving off middle school boy vibes. I understand that Morgan doesn't care but I still feel like he sounded kinda pigish. Glad hes with someone who doesn't care because he clealry needs that in his life. Don't think I can look at him the same :/
I think thats a bit like demanding someone never fantasize about anyone other than you. Thats an unproductive thing to think about or try to control. Only watching porn and reading erotica are private moments and have no other actual participants. I think it's an unreasonable ask. However, i do think the right thing to do is just to communicate that this is an unreasonable ask for you instead of doing it secretly.
if i was Morgan i would have cut that first part out of this episode because its a little icky. if its something you do it doesn't have to be yelled to the world. also Morgan seems okay about the fact he watches porn but even if she wasn't okay with it he would still watch it just like he said . i got the ick. men should have filters lol
@@johannabarr4071 100% its crazy she kept it in its not funny and quirky like they probably think it is, it was actually really triggering as someone whos partner has watched it behind my back and im still healing
Typical grifter behavior. It's actually kind of disgusting she only did this months after the situation escalated and it became clear the Internet was overwhelmingly pro-Palestine. She would never support or touch any controversial subject until it became clear she wouldn't get backlash for it. Big ick ew.
@@Yellow_Plus_Red She did it months ago actually watch her episode where she actually starts with it and talks about how shes half Jewish herself but doesn’t condone the genocide ! So before speaking on a situation make sure you have your facts straight! 😊
I hate the guy sleeping with his ex's daughter. Like sure he didn't see her grow up so it's not like a grooming situation. But the age gap is uncomfy for 1 and for 2.... FOR SEVERAL MONTHS HE LOVED HER IN THE WOMB AS HIS DAUGHTER. Lastly the calling him daddy thing, if that was legit something they did while sleeping together, that's really messed up. Edit to add: he had much more time to deal with the situation emotionally. She's just now processing as a young adult. She's vulnerable.
I also think everyone completely glossed over the fact that _he made the first move._ She was venting to him and being vulnerable and he made a move on her that she initially rejected. It’s literally so gross.
@@thylionheart this!!!! I hated that so much because it’s like he totally took a vantage of her and he doesn’t know what type of embarrassment hurt he inflicted on her
Right he is the definition of a LOSER. If Im ever 40+ and still hung up on a bad breakup from my early twenties so much so that fucking the child of the person I broke up with, also the child I could’ve been a father to, shoot me. Why do men never heal from shit like women will be physically abused, r*ped, isolated and manage to move on for their on good but a dude will keep going on about the girl that cheated on him in HS. But men are the logical ones 🙄 I hate how dehumanized and demonized women who cheat are too like bruh it’s not the moms fault that their community judged her child for her moms’ actions. That never happens when fathers have affairs like ew
morgan proudly plays the cool girl role all the time tho of letting her man watch porn and go to strip clubs so i think he’s comfortable checking out women around her she normalized it
Some couples have different boundaries and Morgan and Justin have literally talked about threesomes and shit like that on camera multiple times 😭 calm down
@@IzzysTravelDiariesWtf do you mean? 😭 These are such specific words that you would RARELY use. Plenty of people would go their whole lives never even knowing these kinds of people exist. No matter what language you speak, it’s impossible to know every single word. What a silly thing to comment!
I’m sorry… I love you guys… but sometimes when it comes to these pregnancy and parenting opinions you guys have, you make it blatantly OBVIOUS you do not have any children.
Are you talking about the nudes thing? Because Morgan seemed okay with it, she even said she saw them too. Every couple is different and what he was saying isn't a "red flag" unless it's something she's not comfortable with, which she seems to be. Maybe don't prescribe your personal relationship boundaries to other couples, and especially don't tell them to divorce because of it (unless there's abuse or something serious happening)? Some couples even enjoy watching p*rn together or gushing about people they both find attractive. It's their business.
Story 7 is unforgivable. That is absolutely abhorrent behavior. Not only thinking it's okay to let your toddler watch a violent movie, but to react that way by wishing your wife and mother of your children to die and throwing something at her? Name calling aside, not only would we be done, I would've called the police for domestic battery in front of a child. That is absolutely unacceptable, first time or not
exactly! who raised that man child?! that is an abusive relationship, he has called you names in front of your child, refuses to accept that watching a violent film which presumably has an age warning in front of a toddler is not a good idea, and then thinking it's ok to throw things at you and tell you he hates you and hope something bad happens to you during your C section, which is presumably planned for health reasons? when you're recovering from that C section, do you think your husband would be able to cope with helping look after you and the baby and the toddler?!
Listening to that story gave me instant anxiety. She needs to gtfo he's an abusive POS and who in their right mind wishes that on their pregnant wife!!
I like some violent or scary movies and shows or sometimes it's Too Much, or sometimes just not up for that, right now. Every guy I've known has been nice and polite about this, whether a boyfriend or friend. I thought it was bad enough he badgered her into watching something violent when she wasn't into it but then to find out the BABY was there! Dude needs to lay off the violent shows for HIMSELF, alone, at this point! And the little baby saying "uh-oh" was so sweet but tearjerking... to me JUST HEARING about it. That is clearly a man with no soul.
She didn't freak out because of the doughnuts!!! She freaked out because of everything else leading up and including the donuts. She freaked out because her hormones are going crazy. Her body is changing. She can't eat the food she wants. And Her husband is making this about HIM. She freaked out because her Husband thinks these donuts are so important that they're infringing on his autonomy, but he can't understand that THIS is just a drop of everything else that she's going through.
I'm at risk of gestational diabetes during my pregnancy. I'm taking steps now to hopefully avoid it. If it does happen, I know I won't want to know if my husband has treats because it would hurt my feelings that I wouldn't be able to have what I want when I want. I don't blame op for going out to eat when he's out of the house and keeping it a secret and agree with the therapist they went to, but him saying that he wants a divorce and that he still hates her and that it was borderline abuse over his birthday doughnuts was extreme. He could've kept them at work and ate them at work to be considerate of his wife. He almost sounds like he has some personal issues with food he needs to work through with a therapist regarding food insecurity if he's throwing that much of a fit over a TEMPORARY change to his diet. Chances are, it isn't even a 9 month change considering women generally get tested for gestational diabetes around 28 weeks, unless they're high risk for developing it. I am actually getting tested at 6 weeks because I'm high risk due to family history. All in all I think he is the a hole and I'm giving some additional leeway and grace to the wife because being pregnant sucks in more ways than that and he should be a bit more grateful she's carrying his child for her and staying with him despite his temper tantrums
Take on story three was appalling. He was literally flaunting it in front of her at first and she was miserable and he acted like he was some sort of victim. It’s not the same thing 34:43 as what Justin was saying here. She as GD, she can’t violent cravings, is pregnant, and can’t eat anything. She’s not unhinged, she’s pregnant. The lack of empathy is shocking. OP is awful. Women are considered horrible moms if they don’t do absolutely everything right, why is it so hard for men to give up the same things they expect their wives to. He is a horrible husband, she could have reacted better but she IS PREGNANT. Of course she cried
When they have a fight and theres weird tension he shouldint be on at all i feel like morgan forces him to be on after a fight in a few episodes u can tell they had attention between them why go on youtube then let him set a episode out no big deal
Story 5, if I were someone who liked to be waxed and my mom were a professional with a business, AND I can get it for free? Absolutely I am letting my mom do it. I have a hard time trusting people I don't know especially with my body, but you know who I can trust? My mom.
Like she's pregnant and has gestational diabetes both which greatly affects your mood. She literally can't eat those things that she craves because she could loose the baby or her life, gestational diabetes is a big deal!!
I’m sorry but yall crazy for siding with the husband at all. He hates her- literally says hates her! Because his pregnant, hormonal wife who has a very difficult health condition had a meltdown when she felt unsupported. Not violent, not dangerous or intimidating, just upset. He threatened divorce over *donuts*. Please look at how he is writing this, he was still eating delivery and watching netflix when he was yelled at not considering support at ALL. Thus sounds like it was her breaking point. This man has no empathy and is not the asshole for ‘bringing home donuts’ but IS the asshole for disregarding and being unsupportive of his wife until she snaps. I am horrified
1:24:20 I hope your kids don’t watch this podcast considering Justin’s inappropriate comments and behavior about 🌽. it’s so disgusting and damaging. especially if children watch it. ew.
I agree with her “rules” in her wedding. I do not agree with judging her and considering her “exhibitionism” for breastfeeding in public. That’s what our breast was made for. Nobody breastfeeds to get attention, we do it because it’s natural and the best for our babies.
This!! Story one is giving you have no kids and haven’t breastfed… I’m a bf mom and there’s no exhibitionism or attention seeking it’s actually incredibly stressful,.. very out of touch take here imo
This!! I dont think asking the photografer not to take pics of her breastfeeding is an AH move but being mean with her and calling her a exibitionist just because she's feeding her kid is a lil shitty
It does not sound like the sister is simply feeding her baby when hungry. FFS the photographer didn’t get any photos of her because she had her boob out the entire time. Do you really think the baby was feeding during the entire duration of the wedding and reception?
The way Lauren said the “ sacrifices he is doing” got me so upset, what about the sacrifice she is doing to keep her baby and herself alive? He can eat that kind of food every other day, but she has to wait for months.
#3 absolutely the AH. Seriously no compassion. This is my second pregnancy with GD and I’m in month 9 feeling like I’m losing my mind. I’m literally eating chicken and broccoli almost every meal. Suck it up while you’re with your wife. It’s only temporary for the both of you.
Story 4: I’m sorry but he took advantage of her when she was clearly vulnerable and young. He didn’t do anything illegal, but he is a major asshole. It’s creepy and just inappropriate in my opinion.
Can’t even listen to this one past 5 min. This is such a shocking side of Justin. Saying every guy is watching porn, and if they say they aren’t then they’re lying. Just because he prob has a porn addiction doesn’t mean all guys do. I found it actually really disrespectful that he said that, especially in front of Lauren, especially at Morgan’s place of work. Like this is still her job. Imagine if he said the same thing at a work function, going around the office talking about how all guys watch porn and you can’t stop them. And then saying what girls he has seen nudes of. So frickin weird I don’t think I can listen to him anymore
It’s weird. Mostly because it seems like a conversation they haven’t gotten into privately. And he’s just there casually talking about how all partners will lie about watching porn like, come on
This is such a weird take to me. He was obviously joking around but he was also responding to topics Morgan brought up - she was the one that mentioned porn.
Breastfeeding is a very natural thing I wouldn’t consider what she was doing as exhibitionism, however it is her wedding so she’s not at fault for not wanting that on camera.
It’s been awhile since we recorded but I thought she has said her sister’s actions in the past before having a baby were exhibitionism? Did she directly call breastfeeding exhibitionism!?
@@Lauren-ib3okI believe she was! A lot of people view breastfeeding as a borderline sexual thing (it isn’t) and believe you have to nurse the child in a private setting only.
She said that apparently the sister's husband broke up with her because she was an exhibitionist, but it doesn't specify why he thought so (though it definitely seems like he got this impression AFTER they had children). It's hard to tell whether he got this impression just from her breastfeeding or if it was based on something else, but it definitely seems like the family only thinks that because of how she breastfeeds. OP does say that she doesn't have an issue with breastfeeding in public, but basically that she should use a cover or go to a more private area other than a bathroom (which... Not every public place has a private area besides a bathroom, so I'm not sure what she meant there). I'm conflicted about the story because while I think it's fair to not want her breastfeeding to appear in wedding photos, but the way she talks about her sister is so judgemental and unkind. She's a newly single mom trying to raise a baby and a toddler, and it's fair that she was hurt to be ostracized from the rest of her family at her sister's wedding. Unless she's toxic in ways not specified in the post, I don't see why OP couldn't have just talked to her and explained about the photos. It kinda seems like they're just a really uptight family and that they're judging her for doing a very natural thing.
Not having to eat Cheesecake Factory and McDonald’s for literally a couple months (gestational diabetes is diagnosed at 27 weeks typically) for solidarity with your partner who is carrying your child is such a little ask. Also, as someone who had gestational diabetes with both babies, you can enjoy the foods you like as long as you pair it with more protein and fiber! Some pasta with veggies and chicken for example keeps your sugars in check, and it sounds like her husband could also learn a bit more balance. Not going to out every single week is not that big of deal if it makes your partner feel supported by you.
Exactly, it’ll be way more supportive if he joined her in her dietary restrictions. Although having a treat once in a while outside the home won’t hurt nobody, it seems like this guy has a serious fast food addiction
Story 5- I don’t think it’s weird for a parent of the same sex to wax their daughter/son. It really depends on the relationship. My daughter(23) and I are very open with each other. We walk around completely naked in front of each other all the time. I wouldn’t think twice about waxing her and don’t think she’d care if I did. We all have the same setup
If I were someone who provided waxing as a professional service, I’d be fine waxing my daughter if she asked me to (at a reasonable age). In a way, I’d prefer it because 1-she’d be saving money and 2-I would know it was being done properly, not causing her skin injury, and under sanitary conditions. But everyone has their comfort level. Morgan’s family speak very openly about sex. Most families aren’t like that and would find it strange and even inappropriate. But for her family, it’s totally normal. This is no different imo.
Story 5. Idk if its me but i feel like getting your mom to wax you is not that crazy. I mean I’ve asked my mom (shyly) to look at my regions if i felt something could be off. Maybe its a cultural difference?
he literally seems like the best partner imo. he completely seemed for the girls. he defended the pregnant woman. he defended the rock collecting. he said to run at the last story bc the husband is abusive.. i think he seemed a little stiff this episode but he def is still for the girlies. he’s one of the most mature men i’ve heard on a podcast fr.
I just wanna say that until you’re pregnant , you won’t ever know how it feels to have intense cravings for foods and intense emotions on top of that. I don’t blame you guys for not understanding, but I literally cried over anything and everything when I was pregnant and was triggered by food since i had HUGE cravings. I cried about Taco Bell once!!!!!!!! Haha, maybe you girls will get it one day!
It honestly felt like a lot, from both OP and the wife. He was deeply inconsiderate and some of her expectations and reactions were just unreasonable. It was an easy ESH for me.
@@diamcole I agree although I’d like more context on the wife’s part considering pregnancy is a great excuse to have hormones and emotional imbalances…. But abuse is never acceptable . If she’s just crying and upset, then that’s justified in my opinion. Having gestational diabetes on top of pregnancy? So terrible
@@emileedublu I feel you. The hormonal imbalances and emotional outbursts definitely make sense, gd is horrible and she must be so uncomfortable. 😣 I think the tipping point came when I heard after a couple sessions, the therapist chose to highlight where they both could have handled things a touch differently. The compromise they came to seemed like the fairest solution imo. Granted, my partner and I have very very different diets lmao (he’s almost entirely plant based and I practically bathe in animal byproducts) so this is something I’ve mulled over quite a bit.
Thinking that ALL men have to be watching porn is honestly sad and wrong . People wake up and realize most porn is violent, under age girls and teaches men to objectify women ):
Justins comment at the start of the video made me super upset too 😭 Like seriously? What does that say about people if they're so addicted tbey can't respect their partners wishes and lie to them all the time
I think there's a balance. You just have to know what to look for. I only watch porn occasionally but I always search for real couple stuff if I do. I am instantly turned off if I feel like the woman isn't enjoying it, and it feels liberating to support a real couple enjoying themselves and sharing it. But, to each their own. I think not watching it is 100% valid, but I think if you do watch it with a sense of that understanding, there's nothing wrong with that either. Mainstream porn is the problem.
Nobody on there said all men have to be watching porn. That was not the point at all. Morgan said at one point that she saw some of the nudes he was talking about, too. He was just saying if you try to control your partner, a lot of partners will pretend to agree and then go behind your back. He did not even say that was right or justified. Again, we need to stop assuming and putting words in others' mouths.
Story 3 is wild considering all that happened in a few weeks. The big blow up, threatening divorce, marriage counseling, finding middle ground, and then this. She's only 7 months but they test for it at 24-28wks.
I found the stigma around breastfeeding so odd! I am from Argentina and here everyone breastfeeds in public, no one bats an eye, the baby needs to eat. I never thought that it’s something so “taboo” in the US that they use breastfeeding covers or go away to a private room to do it. You learn something new everyday 😅
I get upset with breastfeeding at certain times and places and I'm the only person like this I know in Kenya. A few years back this man stopped a woman from breastfeeding at a trendy cafe and it was on the news for weeks; people were outraged, people were confused.
The issue is not breast-feeding in itself, in this story the issue is that the sister constantly has her boobs out. Babies don’t need to be on the tit 24/7.
Here on the Navajo nation mothers they breast-feed everywhere and I do agree that here in the United States. It is very taboo. I don’t understand why I exclusively breast-fed my last two kids due to they were preemies, but yeah I mean breast is best and the man should’ve also talked to the sister and said you know I have a child for wedding. She probably would’ve understood. I don’t know.
I know men and women who both have and respect the boundary in their relationship to not watch porn. My friend and her husband personally don't watch porn for these two reasons: 1) Some people don't want their partner masterbating to other people. While there's nothing wrong with being attracted to people other than your partner, there is realisticly little to no difference between your partner masterbating to porn on The Hub than masterbating to a nude of your neighbor down the street. 2) Sex work, especially under capitalism, is inherently dubious and many of the people involved are not there 100% consensually. Porn also contributes to higher rates of domestic violence, IPSV, and rape, especially against women. Porn has also been reported as the highest contributor to increased sex trafficking rates. It causes many people to have increased dissatisfaction in the bedroom/romantic relationships. Porn consumption can even be linked to disfunctional reward systems in the brain and can even cause prefrontal cortex erosion. And lastly, due to the specific way women are portrayed in porn (even illustrated porn), people who consume porn tend to have consistently more negative views of women than those who do not. People who ask their partners not to view porn aren't living in some fantasy world. It's a very reasonable boundary to draw.
@@wumpy0106 Right?!?! I really hate how people have painted women who don't like their partner watching porn as insecure. Of course, some people are, especially if they don't hold themselves to the same standard as they hold their partner to, but not wanting someone to masterbate to other people is totally understandable. Plus, most people I know that are against porn hold that stance due to the issues it causes that I listed in my original comment. It's a moral stance. If my partner watched porn after we agreed that it wasn't welcome in our relationship, I'd be more disgusted that they continued to support such an industry rather than the fact that they crossed the established boundary. I would still be upset that they betrayed my trust, though, of course
Yeah completely. Justins comment was completely shocking and so gross. It made me feel so insecure im my relationship too, since I have that boundary set and lots of past trauma with unfaithful partners regarding porn 😭
I personally don’t like when men, especially your fiancé speaks about p@rn and other womens body in front of you, especially with audience, it’s so disrespectful and uncomfortable. Guess it depends on how u see it.
Thank you I was looking for this I was originally listening on Spotify and HAD to see if someone literally anyone was going to say this it was so off putting
story 2 pissed me off 😭 he just sounds like a baby that doesn’t want to clean himself up. he doesn’t want to waste the mustard but then he just throws his shirt away?? i’d be so annoyed if i was his partner
Disagree with the pregnancy story because he made her pregnant she has gestational diabetes, which is not a condition she has outside of pregnancy so if he made her pregnant, he gets to go on the journey of her dietary restrictions during her pregnancy as well
He made her pregnant? What it sounds like is it was consensual. everybody would be like it’s your body your choice if she decided to get an abortion. But somehow this man needs to change his whole diet because his gf has the issues??? It’s his body his choice! He can eat whatever he wants! Your statement sounds like it’s coming from a place where The relationship needs to be the same during the pregnancy because that’s what’s fair. Sounds toxic.
It's not necessary. I lived through GD. I didn't make my bf change anything. You need to find other healthy alternatives to eat food you want. Sugar free versions are available that don't spike the glucose levels. Making adjustments for yourself doesn't mean you partner has to suffer.
@@samanthawilson6159thank you. Although I do feel for the woman who’s pregnant, asking you S/O to not eat specific foods bc you can’t seems a bit ridiculous especially if he’s making it a point to eat it away from her.
My mom had gestational diabetes when she was pregnant with my little sister and it was absolute torture for her. I don’t think the pregnant lady was unhinged, I think she’s hormonal from creating a human and probably irritated as fuck that she can’t even give in to any of her pregnancy cravings. she’s being a great mom already by looking out for her baby. that husband is a selfish asshole
My advice is to maybe not cover stories involving pregnancy and hormones unless you have a guest who has experience with it. The lack of perspective here is insane.
Totally agree, the amount of times they have had a story about pregnancy, breastfeeding, or general parenting is so frustrating because they just don't know the reality of it all. They need to have someone on the show with experience for those stories.
Story# 3. Gestational diabetes is only tested at the 7 month mark meaning he would only need to eat healthy with her for 2 more months not even the full 9 and he had the nerve to utter the words divorce. 🙄
Story #3: Wait until you're pregnant. When I was pregnant I cried over a messed up McDonald's order. She's not overreacting. Having gestional diabetes because your pregnant isn't fair. I would have cried too.
7 months pregnant. McDonalds forgot my McNugget sauce, that's all it took for me to breakdown sobbing and declaring "I'll never eat again!". Husband drove back around to get sauce. I was happily eating my nuggets 10 minutes later. Pregnancy hormones are no joke!
Ive been pregnant and yes it is hard, but it doesn’t mean she has the right to berate him and abuse him over him eating. He didn’t eat it at home, he did it in his car and did not tell her so it wouldn’t hurt her after their therapy appt, per what the therapist recommended and the therapist said she was being unreasonable. She is pretty controlling and borderline abusive to try to control everything he eats. She could easily cause him to develop an eating disorder by acting like this. Jealousy is understandable, but to ruin his birthday or to berate him over him going to eat in his car, which he kept from her and didn’t rub it in her face, is absolutely unhinged. I also raise a diabetic child, and he knows that just because of his condition, it’s not other peoples fault for eating things he cannot, and he is 5 years old…. She only has to deal with this for 2 months, my 5 year old will have to deal with this his entire life. I also had a condition where i threw up everytime after i ate so i aboided it even though i was starving for the whole 9 months and i still did not abuse my husband just because he ate, and she only has to do this for 2 months….
Thanks for offering your platform to bring up a fundraiser for medical care! They don’t have clean water and safe food so everyone is getting sick. 😢 They have nothing…
Pulled over to read the comments,,, so glad we all feel the same about story 3! I was getting heated in my car haha. The waxing story didn’t strike me as weird because it’s her mom’s profession. Odds are it is viewed more clinical than anything. If her mom wasn’t a professional waxer that would be a bit stranger, but getting professional services for free as a college student sounds like a win to me.
Why is Justin watching porn right before the stories !? 🥴 I couldn’t get over that the whole video. It felt like a reddit story situation come to life. There’s a time and place!! 😂
The husband is dead wrong. It’s not 9 months you usually don’t even find out until 26ish weeks you can’t do a 3-4 month diet. You should want to support her. The issue is you don’t love her.
Story 3 baby daddy is showing his cards through his writing and doesn’t know it. he is clearly TA and you can tell by the way he talks about his pregnant wife. It’s clear he isn’t telling the whole story. And the cherry on top. if you are on a page about asking if you are wrong, why can’t you handle the answer? it’s what you asked for no? He just wanted to be babied
Story 3: I don't think he loves his wife... it's a temporary situation and he was ignoring and dangling the food infront of her from the start he doesn't care or feel sorry for her he didn't try to hide it and not make it obvious from the beginning before going to couple consulting! So she's ofc gonna be mad and freak out if after what they gone through he go and bring the whole box home he could've eat some outside and had empathy for his wife to at least go buy some other box or something to disguise the remaining donuts to but them in the other fridge without his wife knowing! But he is a manchild who doesn't care about his wife and her TEMPORARY issue that she only had because she's PREGNANT with their child.... If he was accommodating and caring husband she wouldn't be angry sad and upset with him in the first place he literally can eat outside she only blow up at him after so many times of him eating infront of her not giving two fks about her! He's just disgusting and she doesn't deserve him
No I agree!! I was combing the comments to see if it was just me - he seems off. It's been a while because the last episode I remember him being so punchy was in the fall, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who picked up on the irritation he's exuding.
Listen, i have 3 kids. I am a mom as well and i know that pregnancy is hard. I did not get blessed with a easy pregnancy ever. Multiple health problems, bed rest. The works. But that being said people act like pregnancy is a disability. I understand uncontrollable hormones, but she is partially to blame. She hasnt tried to understand her husband's past trauma at all and food trauma is a big thing. It also tends to lead to uncontrollable reactions.
What I found so funny about the chicken strip story was that he was so concerned about wasting 1 honey mustard packet but threw away a whole shirt afterwards lol
EXACTLY
Him I was worried people would judge me proceeds to eat a 6 piece tendy meal dipping off his shirt
Exactly
AND he seemed to think his wife was mad that he stained his shirt and smelled like mustard, not that he was dipping his chicken strips into his shirt mustard 😂😂😂
I fucking loved that he dipped it on his shirt tho, I laughed so hard
The pregnant wife, full of hormones, hungry and with cravings, cried. The husband, eating well and how much he wants, no hormones at all, threatened divorce and says he hates her. But she's unhinged????
This is so precise 👏 plus, she is looking to him as the future dad of this baby to be ready for the chaos and emotional Rollercoaster that comes along with parenting. He is not a stable, supportive person.
All 3 lauren justin n morgan are insane what do they mean he already sacrificed? What did he sacrificed nothing the bad food us still in the home just in anither room n hes still eating junk at restaurants ithink for a couple months he could eat healthy big deal
@@tiffmitch702 and at the point he threatened divorce he literally hadn't given up on anything. The fight was what made them go to therapy and the therapist said he needed to compromise a bit too. The wife might have overreacted bc well, she's pregnant and in physical hell (been there) but it's no excuse to go that low. And to carry that afterwards calling it hate, THAT is unhinged to me
@@j0yfulblessings right? Like, imagine if this woman suffers from ppd. He'll divorce her and tell everyone she's crazy like he's already doing in that reddit post. He's also probably expecting to keep living his life like normal, going out, watching his Netflix even if the mom is exhausted and the baby is crying bc he can't "sacrifice" - god forbit if that child ever has some sort of food restriction. But I bet by that time this woman will realize she has a husband that resents her for expecting him to be supportive during difficult times and will dump his ass.
The husband in the story has the emotional bandwidth of a maladjusted teenager. Also, while we can recognize his trauma, the time to deal with that is before you have children. Too many people leave trauma unresolved, and they don’t confront it, or even acknowledge it until they become parents. That needs to change.
I personally don’t care about breast feeding in public in ANY capacity. But what’s weird is being mad that someone’s wedding photos didn’t feature you breast feeding.
She was upset her sister was treating her so poorly. She didn't even get to sit with the family. If you read the post op didn't say she wanted pictures of her nursing. The sister was upset because she was excluded from all the picture.
@@sheenabudd925you’re right I forgot about the part where OP said she seated her away “in case she started breastfeeding”. I never thought OP wasn’t the AH, I just think the sister should also be aware and courteous of boundaries. But based on OP’s post (which could be a lie as we only have one POV, and OP being disgusted by breastfeeding is enough motive to lie) the sister likes to push boundaries, and test societal norms.
I mean of course she is going to breastfeed during a long ceremony and reception. I wonder if OP even tried talking to her.
If OP had a convo with her sister beforehand tho, if the OP asked her sister to breastfeed under a privacy shawl or something, would that have been enough?
Overall I think a conversation about boundaries should happen. Based on the post it doesn’t seem like it has, we are just given a general assumption from OP that the sister wouldn’t listen.
@@sheenabudd925she was excluded from pictures bc she was probably breastfeeding the whole time lol the photographer even had to ask the sister if she could just step away bc she's in the crowd breastfeeding away when they're trying to take pictures. I'm sure she would've had pics taken if she wasn't breastfeeding bc that was the only issue about it
@@sheenabudd925 no where did it say she was excluded from all photos. The photographer asked her to leave photos when she had her boobies out. The photographer wouldn’t have told her to move if she was dressed.
@@aduckofsomesortboobies what are you 12
I'm the mother of three adorable girls and I had gestational diabetes every time. It got worse each time and the risk of it not going away after giving birth gets higher each time. I didn't eat any sugar, very little carbohydrates, changed the type of flour I used to cook and so on. My husband asked me each time he wanted to eat something I couldn't: "Darling, would you mind me eating this?". I never told him not to. Sometimes as a surprise I even cooked dishes for him I couldn't eat myself. I knew he loved them and he never asked for them, just to support me.
For me it was enough knowing that he cared enough to ask, instead of just doing it anyway. I never even mentioned me not wanting him to or anything. He started asking on his own, just because he's thinking about how I might feel.
He supported me through all three pregnancies and now each time I mention how parts of my body changed, for example veins showing on my legs, he responds with: "Those are badges of honor for you to have given me three beautiful children. Be proud of that, just like I am proud of you. I love each and every change you went through for us."
That's how partners should be supporting each other in my opinion.
That is a sweet relationship you two have and absolutely the way that this situation should be handled!! I think both of them in that reddit story are a little unhinged and in need of therapy together and separately
Y’all are SO wrong on the pregnancy one.
First- A he’s the asshole for bringing up DIVORCE to his pregnant partner and saying he hates her?!? But she’s the unhinged one… okay sure!
Second -you don’t test for gestational diabetes until at least 20 weeks which means it’s not even the whole 9 months he has to give it up eating in his home.
Third -you are beyond exhausted, hormonal, you crave things like CRAZY so yeah her crying is COMPLETELY understandable and not unhinged at all (she could be disappointed that the first pregnancy is and it isn’t turning out like she pictured- or it could be that she just isn’t feeling all the changes and not being SUPPORTED LIKE she said… this probably isn’t the only thing she isn’t feeling supported over)
Fourth- you have to give up and change SO much when you are pregnant… no deli meat, low caffeine, no alcohol, no sushi, no hot tubs and so on and so forth. And then adding gestational diabetes on top with no sugar no carbs omg I would have died.
He is 100 percent the asshole! He can go 20 weeks without eating SHIT that she can’t while SHE is carrying HIS child!!!!
She is unhinged. I am 25 weeks pregnant. My husband has had seafood, drank, eaten subway. Those are MY restrictions not HIS. She’s restricting what he eats REGARDLESS of whether it’s in front of her or not. Being pregnant is not a fucking hall pass to be a giant controlling bitch for 9 months. PERIOD
Voyeurism is when you watch people. Exhibitionism is where you show people.
I came for the comments looking for this lol
@@fallingawayfromthenorm me too lol - glad I wasn't the only one lol
I think the last time this came up she got them switched too lol. My brain does that all the time where it flips two things. We knew what she meant though haha
I made a similar comment before I saw this. 😂
This! And it doesn't have to be genitally-involved lol.
Omg That donut man literally said he hates his pregnant wife for ruining his birthday. They SHOULD get a divorce. Hating someone is a deal breaker. She deserves to raise a child with someone who doesn't hate her.
Yeah the resentment and hate he feels is honestly fucked up to have for someone you are supposed to love. Definitely divorce.
This! Even though I disagreed with him, I understood him up until that point. He lost me. You can't take those words and feelings back, just like he couldn't take back the threat of divorce.
I love you so much Morgan! But the 7 month pregnant woman with gestational diabetes is not "unhinged" for crying when she saw the Cheesecake Factory receipt. She's completely hormonal. As a Mom of 4 who had gestational diabetes once, I felt for her. She definitely didn't handle it well, but when you're that far into a pregnancy, crying is frequently the only thing you can do. Your body is just too busy to let you think logically about things.
I agree. I have never been pregnant but I thought it's pretty well known that pregnant women cry at the drop of the hat. And the husband saying her crying is punishing him? Like no she's crying and rather than having empathy he's centering himself. I doubt she's punishing him she's just crying and she probably can't help it.
I have had gd twice. I agree with you absolutely 100%.
@@koripeterson7310 Yeah, from what I’ve heard crying tends to just happen when you’re pregnant, even when you might not be all that upset. Although I think the majority of people can’t cry on command so I tend to assume that if someone’s crying (pregnant or not) then it’s probably because of something important to them and that it’s best to ask them if they need anything or if they want to be alone for a minute to collect themselves and not just focus on myself
When you are pregnant cravings are so intense! Its completely different from when you are not pregnant. OP is the asshole, because in the beginning of his post he wrote about all the food that he was eating in front of her. He could have cut back a bit, or from the beginning hidden it. Its like he wanted to make her feel bad, or he really is that dense. When you are pregnant you are also super emotional, and anything will make you cry. Being pregnant and uncomfortable and also not being able to eat any of the foods you are craving is torture! He could have handle the situation better, in my opinion. Its like he was looking for her to come at him, by eating in front of her.
100%%%% I hate their take on it. None of them have kids or have been pregnant. So they can’t know what it feels like to be pregnant and want something you literally can’t have at all. And her crying about it makes sense
Story 5: I’m an esthetician of 10 years and a waxer, and when I tell you I’ve seen it all, I’ve seen it ALL. My mom is also an esthetician. I have waxed her, she has waxed me. There’s nothing weird about it. I’ve waxed my best friends. I literally couldn’t even tell you what anyone’s hoohah looked like, just because I’ve seen so many and when you’re on a certain level of professionalism, you kind of blackout and are only focused on getting the hair, and keeping the service as professional as possible. It would be extremely inappropriate to talk about anyone’s business, outside of the service.
I don’t have the same experience but my mom was a labor & delivery nurse for 25 years so if my mom was to get into waxing I’d probably let her wax me. However I’d probably be kinda uncomfortable with one of my friends moms lol
my lil sister is a waxer. she waxes me and a good chunk of my cousins and even some of my friends. Its a professional experience when in the room. Shouldnt be weird unless they are making it weird. No way waxers are talking about their customers
im confused about the initial reaction from them like damn why would the mom talk about what her vagina looks like after… and i have never gotten a wax but thinking about going to a stranger or my mom i would pick my mom
Came here to say the same thing. I watched my mom and my sister. Also, it's true that you really don't remember what peoples vaginas look like after they leave.
i would also like to add i’m far more comfortable with my mom than some stranger! i’ve struggled with excessive body hair my whole life and my mom used to remove my lower back hair for me so i wouldn’t be embarrassed to go to someone else at 14. it really strengthened my relationship with my mother.
Morgan thank you so much for using your platform to speak out against the atrocities happening in Gaza right now. You have more courage than many MANY other celebrities and creators that have the following to make a real difference. Part of why I watch this show is bc I feel like, if I knew you all irl, I'd really like and respect you as people and this only further solidified that sentiment. ❤
i cannot wrap my brain around threatening to divorce your PREGNANT wife for almost ANY reason. pregnancy is a physically grueling experience for some people and only one partner has to experience it. imagine going through all that pain and your partner cant even quit eating cheesecake factory in solidarity with you. shes going to be alone in raising that child because her partner is so selfish and unwilling to make changes for her comfort. she will have 2 children, not one
for me it was really extreme that he wanted divorce on that topic, i really bet it was about other things but yeah really wild
The only reason i can ever see divorcing a pregnant partner is if they had got violent with me or tried to kill me but both them need therapy
There are reasons to divorce pregnant people acting like they can do no wrong is not good they can be abusive and violent cheating and many other things but she is trying to control what he eats and and it being horrid to him when he eats what she wants he is eating out of her sight it's not like he's rubbing it in her face
Seriously how hard is it for this man to eat healthy with his PREGNANT wife for 9 months of his miserable life. I can’t even watch this fking episode beyond the “he’s done more than enough”
@juliedesjardins5910 he has trauma around food or do you only care about woman's mental health he is doing nothing wrong
Story 3: Mentioning divorce, not being supportive/ of her diet for the health of THEIR BABY, truly believing the only problem is that he's eating food she can't and missing the principle, HATING his wife STILL, believing this is a "you problem" that shouldn't affect him, bring up his trauma to validate his part in this. He is definitely the AH.
This. I totally see why one of the commentators brough up "baby boy" thing, it's more so not about OP's behaviour, but his attitude and how he writes the story.
Yeah, but it's like they said, both of then have issues. He could, and should, be more supportive of her, but she is not doing herself any favors either.
Issues on both sides it seems but he is so unsupportive I feel for her realising this while carrying his child
@@emmapatel2146just asking, have you even been forced to make extreme diet changes while going through a medical event for months?
@@mallorybybee6560 sorry what did I say that was wrong? He is a total AH sounds like she is reacting to his unsupportive nature and I feel so sorry for her probably feeling trapped with him now they are having a child. Not that my medical info really matters but I'm pre-diabetic, eat healthy already but got to cut out more and work on other aspects. I have zero medical support as barely got results back so I can strongly relate to her situation minus the pregnancy but for me it's for life
I was screaming at you guys inside my car when you were saying he should eat whatever and that he is making a sacrifice. A sacrifice????????? him????????? she is pregnant with his child. I was so blown away about how bad of a partner that dude is. I'm happy you agreed with me later on tho hahahhaha
100% guy complains about not being able to eat what he wants and how hard it is for him, then has no empathy for her not being able to do that because she could DIE.
Yes! You can tell they've never been pregnant or had to make any actual sacrifices lol
I just kept saying she’s carrying his baby. She’s carrying his baby. She’s carrying his baby.
Hahahaha I’m so sorry!!!! I didn’t realize it was from and during pregnancy I wanted to redo when I realized 🥲😭😂 the live shows were really helpful to have y’all yell real time. 😂
She's literally sacrificing herself for HIS BABY. There are several social media accounts dedicated to the possible side effects of pregnancy, he is lucky that all he has to do is eat his special food somewhere not at home.
story 5: i really don’t think it’s a huge deal! if her mom didn’t literally own a wax shop then it would be weird but she obviously is a professional waxer so why would she go somewhere else? she’s probably much more comfortable with her mom seeing her than a stranger honestly. i think it also depends on her relationship with her mom, some relationships are just closer than others
Also like. Its her mom, she's already seen her like that from when she had to change her diapers lol
@@eminempreg exactly like i’m just not seeing the issue LMAO
Story 4- that wasn’t closure and revenge wasn’t needed, that man had 23 years to get over that woman and go to therapy. sending a picture was so gross, he thought that girl was gonna be his child. it’s disgusting and I can’t understand why he felt the need to share this story if he knows it’s wrong.
Yep, I agree. I was quite shocked "revenge" was even brought up...in no way could this be closure, its predatory and vile.
I completely agree. When he first mentioned the ages, I immediately said out loud gross. And this is coming from someone who has a 4 year age gap between me and my partner. And he refers to her as "kid" gave me the ick🤢
agreed. closure never comes from other people. that’s something you find within yourself. 23 years is a really long time to be hung up on this, even if he “wasn’t looking for revenge” like dude get a grip, grow up, and be the responsible adult in the situation. that girl is so beyond damaged and this is only going to make it worse.
yeah, he was a huge pervert and predatory creep. I'm so glad everyone on Reddit chewed him out. Nasty sicko.
@@gabinesureferring to her as kid in the story immediately made me cringe. if he hadn’t said that like yeah it’s weird because of the situation, but the fact that he called her kid is just gross and creepy
not everyone watches porn lmao.
I hate it lol
same
I can’t stand when people think just because they and the people in their circle are a certain way then everyone else MUST be too. So annoying.
It literally disgusts me that he wants to see other people nude, meanwhile claiming he loves Morgan?? That’s disgusting. I would rather throw up than see anyone else naked FOR ENTERTAINMENT, and Ive only been with my man for 11 months. I can’t believe he’d want to do that.
I’m 28 1/2 weeks pregnant and it’s absolutely insane to me that pregnant women are expected to give up sooooo many things for 9 months or else they’re a “bad mom” and yet the fathers can’t manage to do similar???? She has to have a stricter diet in order to keep herself and THEIR child healthy but he can’t make that change too for a few months? Getting to still eat what he wants but hiding it is NOT a sacrifice. Her sacrificing her entire being to grow his child IS a major sacrifice and the very least he can do is change his diet for a couple months to help make her feel supported. Like that’s truly the very least you can do as a soon to be father. You’re doing nothing else to contribute to growing your child. At least support your partner who is doing allll the work even if that means sacrificing some of the things you like. She can’t even lay on her freaking back to sleep without being told she’s going to k*ll her child and this dude can’t go without some donuts and cheesecake?! F*ck him. Sorry..I’m super frustrated by the audacity of this “man” lol. She was diagnosed at 7 months. It’s not even 9 months of this change. He can’t go 2 godd*nm months without threatening divorce over junk food?! What a loser.
Forreal!! Just got back from an appointment where my OB is telling me my blood sugars are still too high with me eating a strict diet no cheating or anything AND taking insulin and she’s telling me I could kill my baby if I step out of line at all. The stress on top of not being able to eat ANYTHING I crave is ridiculously difficult. 37 weeks and due any day now but it’s been soooo hard
Oh my gosh! Thinking of you through such a stressful time. I can’t stand the language some OBs use when talking to pregnant women. Its fear mongering half the time and then they turn around and tell you stress is bad too. Like, YOURE THE ONE STRESSING ME OUT! 😅
yes! i feel so badly for her. not to mention his nerve to repeatedly tell reddit how much he hates her.
THIS! My husband stopped drinking in solidarity with me (occasionally I’ve given him the green light to go ahead, like his birthday, new years ect: but he never asks to drink). And we’ve had me eating REALLY strict (all organic, no sugar unless it’s fruit, high protein and high iron, NO artificial food coloring etc.) That being said, he’s living it with me. He drank probably 4 doctor pepper a day prior and hasn’t had one in a couple months. He understands he could never expect me to be so strict on myself ESPECIALLY with everything else I’m sacrificing to grow his baby; and then turn around and eat like crap. WE made a lifestyle change for OUR baby and that’s how it should be. I know I’m one of the lucky ones, and I can’t imagine how hard it would be to have GB and an unsupportive partner on top of it all. I cried for 20 minutes once because it was 10pm and I had to wait until morning for my watermelon. Having to wait until DELIVERY sounds like a new level of torture. And THEN to have her douchbag husband eat her craving and not even be smart enough to hide the receipt is like a slap in the face. Then he bullies her by treating divorce like he even has a CLUE what she’s enduring. Pathetic.
@juliaortiz6483 Pretty sure he hated her before this.
It wasn’t just a box of donuts or Cheesecake Factory. He said he eats cookies, ice cream, cheese, McDonald’s, etc. So he was flaunting it like in reference to Lauren’s wine comment.
Also how much junk food do you have if you need a whole fridge?
And it’s not 9 months. It’s 4 or 5 months when you get diagnosed.
Also, there is more than just alcohol that pregnant women give up. Deli meat, some seafood, all sushi, steak other than well done, soft cheeses, unpasteurized food, too much caffeine, precut fruits and veggies, herbal tea, soft serve, LEFTOVERS (risk for listeria), and more
This. I was pregnant during my birthday. I love sushi. Guess what I gave up for one birthday. That man is weak.
Honestly I’m still going to eat leftovers and precut fruit while pregnanr
With gestational diabetes on top of that…what are you even eating at this point??
Wait pregnant women can't eat soft serve ice cream? I had no idea 😮
@@zippityzoop1478 It's not absolute - if they are freshly cut fruit in the restaurant (with hygiene standards) it's safe - we're talking about fruit that's left out for hours where flies and coughs might have brought germs to it. And if leftovers are properly heated up they are also safe.
Everyone has different boundaries. I was super strict at first and as I researched and learned throughout my first pregnancy, I loosened up some rules and was more discerning as I knew the nuances. :)
All the best to you in your future endeavours!
For a grown man to be hurt over an argument on his birthday and now hate his wife. I think she should run for this hills. She doesn't need 2 babies
Right? I feel bad for his future baby. It’s gonna grow up with a father that takes everything personally and holds grudges over petty stuff. The mom is hormonal and pregnant and can’t excited control her body or mind with how extreme she feels.
She’s carrying his baby!!! He can’t even support her for a few months with cleaner eating and some empathy? It’s not that serious like boohooo he can’t have cheese cake factory and Netflix while his wife incubates another human and is at risk of getting worse from her diabetes. She’s literally risking her health and life to stay in line to birth a baby
He said his pregnant wife was chubby. I f hope he meant before but even if ….. dude wtffffff!?!?!? His behavior is disrespectful, no matter the circumstances.
@@cierra247 yep. He's trying to blame her for the gestational diabetes even though the placenta actually forms from the make dna so most gestational diabetes actually comes from the man
Right?!
Donut guy sounded psychotic. Talking about his food insecurity as a kid doesn’t make sense. It’s not like his wife made him calorie restrict. She just restricted what he could eat in their home.
Story 3 She's sacrificing her body and mental health and he's sacrificing Netflix with takeout. Pretty even I'd say lol
The rock story reminded me of the post about the dad getting mad every time the mom would collect another mug. After their divorce, her new boyfriend built a display wall for all of her mugs.

tbh i hear a lot of youtubers talk about how they dont watch their own videos (same with actors not watching their own shows, its weird to hear ur own voice back and see urself), like lauren probably doesnt listen to every single podcast, maybe one here and there. i also feel like with adult friendships you arent always that in touch with friends, so its probably the kind of thing where morgan hasnt mentioned to her off camera before or lauren just didnt hear it in an episode. doesnt mean shes a bad friend!
Right?! I’m like is she acting right now because what you mean you didn’t know? Lol
@@LangfaceLauren has mentioned before she’s “bad about listening to everyone else’s episodes” back when Ale was still on.
On the waxing question, my mother is a nurse. I’ve asked her any “embarrassing” question without fail, and she always holds the conversations professionally. I think as long as your parents are respectful and professional in terms of how they go about it, including confidentiality, there is no shame, especially when you’re saving money
The title makes it sound so bad, i was so worried it was going to be about a child or younger person being forced to by their parents but if everyone's an adult and cool w it then it's not big deal!
Same, my mom was a nurse as well! When they read the title of this one the first thing I thought was it's only okay if she's a waxer.
If I had a good relationship with my mom and she was a professional waxer, I’d do it.
My mom's a nurse too, and I can talk to her about anything. I even talked to her about intimate dryness when I was changing my birth control.
Yeah i agree, I wouldn’t have an issue with my mom waxing me especially if it was her job 🤷🏽♀️ but I guess it really just depends your comfort level and relationship you have with your mom.
I had gestational diabetes with both of my pregnancies. The first time, I really really struggled with it and had daily mental breakdowns over not being able to eat what I want, but also not being able to eat when you want. It sucks when you are hungry and you just want an apple but you just tested 2 hours after your meal and your blood sugar is high. So now in spite of being 30 weeks pregnant and being hungry you have to wait. It is a new kind of torture to know that all you want is freaking watermelon but knowing that if you eat it, you are hurting your baby. I would never order my husband to stick to such a strict diet but I asked him to not eat carbs in front of me, and if he did, I didn’t want to know about it. I did give him a free pass on holidays. To me that husband is a massive ahole.
Agreed
Agreed
I think so too, I mean you’re going through so much, a healthy pregnancy is already complicated enough and with the emotional and physical toll on the gestational diabetes, it’s a lot… I can’t imagine being in that position and also having this situation with the person who’s supposed to be there for you the most
I didn’t realize it was only from and during pregnancy at first and that really changed things!! I’m so sorry you had to go through that :(
Omg 100% i was surprised by the responses
Theres studies that show porn or explicit images affects the love and attraction men have for their partner. Its not good for your brain or relationship at all.
Unless you’ve been pregnant DO NOT speak on how they act lol. Hormones get crazy during pregnancy and I didn’t even recognize myself when I was pregnant. I was crying uncontrollably over a lot of pointless stuff. 😂😂
The fact he’s confused that she likes rocks when her line of work is literally all about rocks🙃🙃
In story 4 when Morgan read “I can finally call him Daddy.” I screamed with her.. nasty.
I am heated about the gestational diabetes one. He’s an asshole.
1. How dare you use the word divorce in a fight over food with your PREGNANT wife. You don’t deserve to be yelled at but it’s so not ok to hold that over someone’s head to get them to change their behavior (which is be mad at all that he was totally insensitive before the therapist talked to him)
2. Gestational diabetes is temporary. It’s a really hard adjustment, normal diabetes is usually kind of gradual. Gestational means immediate diet changes, multiple needles every day, and the threat of hurting your baby if you do it wrong. It’s a lot of emotion on top of discomfort. She needs temporary support for a condition caused by something for both of them.
3. Policing food is different than what she’s doing. She’s begging for support. He’s making it clear it’s more important for you to eat than to support her.
4. Pregnancy is a level of exhaustion that I’ve never felt before. Having a newborn doesn’t compare. I was SO much more exhausted when I was pregnant. Sure her reactions may be “a little much” but when you’re that exhausted and frustrated those emotions are so overwhelming.
5. Exercising doesn’t decrease your blood sugar immediately. Over time it does…but gestational diabetes will be over for her in 2-3 months and honestly exercising won’t make enough of a difference that it would change her dietary restrictions at all.
6. If I were her I’d see his inability to be supportive now as a sign of how little support he’s going to give as a dad. Part of her is probably panicking and thinking oh my god I’m gonna have to do everything for this baby with almost no support. It doesn’t matter if it’s not true and that he may be an incredible dad once the kid is here…that’s totally what this is pointing to and I, as a pregnant woman would be so worried.
Dudes allowed to eat what he wants and make his own choices. But he’s an asshole. He should accept his title or change his behavior.
Holy crap I just heard the edit…it’s a freaking donut. You clearly have issues around food to be that impacted by her saying you shouldn’t eat it. And it wasn’t just about the donut. It was about the total lack of support up until that points To say you hated her is AWFUL. She at least has an excuse because she’s exhausted and has hormones wreaking havoc on her brain. Is what she did ok? No. I’ll repeat that. What she did was not ok. But your reactions are so out of pocket and your lack of empathy or understanding just communicates how little you support her now.
All I could think through his whole post and update was “cry about it” I know I am lacking major empathy in saying this here if his food insecurity issues are as bad as he says but CRY ABOUT IT. It’s temporary. She’s not asking him to starve himself. She’s asking for support. Ugh he’s a major asshole and baby like that one comment said
THANK YOU yes that's what I thought!!
@@g-racer6683same! and his shameless deceleration of how much he hates his wife. that poor woman.
this!!!!!! their initial reactions were making me so mad bc all i could think the whole time was “SHES PREGNANT WITH T H E I R CHILD”
story 3: your partner now has to dramatically change her diet for 9 months, to ensure you BOTH have a healthy baby. the least you can do is not openly consuming the foods she can’t have, in front of her - birthday or not, she is struggling, had communicated to OP prior to the donuts that she was struggling and he still carried a dozen donuts into that house, that she can’t touch. she doesn’t want you to suffer but, clearly needs better moral support with her diet. not all, but plenty of partners stop drinking as a couple, when one of them is pregnant. this is a “would I be the AH for taking my newly sober friend to happy hour.” kinda story. like yes, OP YTA for not listening to your wife when the food problem made her sob on multiple occasions.
edit: heard the update and he gets worse- he threw any chance of repairing his birthday in the trash when he mentioned divorce- he took a small fight to all the way to hell and is now playing the victim. “you’re gonna raise this child alone now, because you’re emotional and hurt my fee fees on my birthday over some donuts” is what he said when he mentioned divorce. he is so self concerned it’s pathetic.
She wouldn’t have been diagnosed right away. More than likely it’s like 5 months without something. I personally would give a pass for birthday being a special occasion, but otherwise he shouldn’t have food that she can’t in the house.
Wow so he has to give up his birthday foods? Yeah no
yup. she sacrifices her body for 9 months for both of them. the least hubby could do is suck it up for 9 months smh the bar is in hell for men
OP is TA and I don't agree on takes criticising "baby boy" comment because of the OP's edit. He does sound literally like that, with his hysterical reaction as an answer to his wife's (may also be inadequate, but that's not the point here) reaction. Tbh I've got feelings like they're both pregnant from hearing this. With such an attitude from OP this marriage is just doomed anyway. Its literally "you're NTA for what you're asking about, you're TA though for how you wrote about it".
@@hayamirin6795 there could have been a conversation on the donuts, had he been somewhat supportive before hand. but him expecting a new outcome and reaction when he did nothing to make supportive change in the first place, is crazy- i’m not shocked she freaked over it.
also he had options to still enjoy his donut, tell your boss or co-workers you can’t have sweets in the house right now and leave em at the office and eat them there, or leave them in the trunk of your car, really anything.
Justin’s vibes and energy at the beginning of this video made me so uncomfy
OMG! I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that. He seemed annoyed and/or uncomfortable. I still think him and Lauren are having an affair. How did Lauren not know what Morgan wanted for her wedding too.
@@zaraheartthey were just messing around. Its not that deep.
@@zaraheartwoah that is CRAZY TO SAY !!!!!
@@Poohbear5560 🤷🏽♀️😂 I’ve thought that they were having an affair for months because of two videos where their body language was sketch
@@dhruvbatra9548 I def wouldn’t go as far as saying they’re having an affair or all that 🤣 and yes they were joking I just think he was disrespectful the way he was saying things.
The 🌽 stuff in the beginning was a bit odd. I used to be like you guys and not care until it caused issues within my relationship. The addiction caused my partner to decline intimacy with me and choose to watch 🌽 instead. Months of this and promises to stop (due to the lack of intimacy within the relationship) just to find out he was like, like Justin said, still watching it hurt my feelings very much. It got to the point where it became a “me or the 🌽” issue. So if I did find out he was still watching, the relationship would be over. People with addictions can’t just dabble occasionally so hearing Justin say that no one stops watching it was sad for me to hear. Of course, this isn’t to say that Justin can’t have his own opinions or whatever but I’d just challenge him to stop watching for a month. If it’s a struggle to stop or your first reaction is immediately “no”, maybe question why that is. Also, there have been MANY studies on the effects of 🌽 on the brain, maybe look into it. It’s eye opening.
Wax specialist here! We are very professional from the beginning with our guests to the very end! We talk about anything and everything with the clients comfort level of discussion. Like gynos, doctors, and other professionals we do see everything and are immune from it. We don’t blast peoples business or bodies out of respect for them and because they told us in private. Even with my coworkers we don’t talk about each others bodies when we wax each other. There is still professionalism while we are cracking jokes as if we are friends! As a waxer we help ease their minds of the pain while making them vent, laugh or be on their phone! Waxing a family member is no biggie to some of us and some other waxers don’t wax certain parts of the body for a family member. It’s all about preference and still remaining respectful and staying in the boundary zone!
thank you for this comment!!! other esthetician here and i felt so disrespected by their word usage the entire time. if OP doesn’t want to whatever boundaries but everyone was a bit judgmental and presumptuous assuming PROFESSIONALS aren’t going to be PROFESSIONAL
@@kayleym7657 that’s how I felt too when writing my comment out!
Justin insisting that literally everyone watches porn makes him seem like a porn addict 😭 no hate but he dose know not every guy even likes it right??
Having it up on his watch shows he’s addicted
A lot do though
that whole conversation in the beginning was so uncomfortable
THANK YOU! I thought that was so bizarre
That was a joke 🤦🏻♀️ he didn’t actually have it on his watch
The honey mustard story response was driving me INSANE. What normal person would EVER DIP THEIR CHICKEN ONTO THEIR SHIRT. even at home what the hell, now yall gave me a new thing on my ick list. “Dipping chicken tenders into sauce on their shirt” 💀
Omg yes! If I saw someone doing that AT A RESTAURANT I would be flabbergasted. Like I get we all forgot what manners are after covid, but for sanitary reasons?!?
Om nom nom nom
I know you and Justin are cool with each other watching corn. But when Justin started straight gushing when discussing other womens nudes I felt physically ill. With him in the next beat talking about y’all’s wedding, literal chills went to my soul. That was straight whiplash.
Right… in my opinion idk how she can marry him… it would cause so much resentment and distrust for me- yikes
Also I feel bad for lauren, I would not want to be sitting next to my friends bf saying anything similar
Lol why does someone else’s man talking about nudes make you feel any type of way… triggered maybe?
@@Summitofsol bc it’s grody- TrIgGeReD mUcH?
It’s seems like it’s not a big deal for her and to them it might not be meaningful or telling of anything.
Story 5.. when she said “parents” in the title I thought she was going to say the Dad too. I personally wouldn’t mind if it was my mom, I would probably feel more comfortable with it being her. And it’s.. a business. Her mom does that as her job. Plus I’m sure her mom isn’t charging her which is even better. A free wax? Sign me up.
Yes, if that wasn't the mom's line of work then yeah weird, but she does that for a living she probably is desensitized to seeing genitals. I would rather have my mom who I know and trust that a complete stranger all up on my business, plus it's free!
right? so you’re telling me i’m weird for getting a free wax by someone i trust? i honestly don’t think it’s that weird for her mom to do it either
My parents were in the medical field and many of their coworkers had kids around my age (small town people what's up), if it was weird for us to potentially have a parent or friends parent take care of something in an intimate area, a visit to the hospital could get really tricky 😂. Also, I would 10,000% rather the context being "I need a wax" than "I need someone who has known me since I was a child because (insert junk related medical disaster here)"
I think some people get weird about bodies. I grew up with a single mum and when it's hot in the summer we'd just be in our underwear. Also the mum has seen it, touched it, cleaned it more times than she can count.
Totally agree! My mom made me and has the same parts. Not weird at all. I think it also has to do with your upbringing. I could understand the weirdness if you had conservative parents who kept things private. But personally, as an adult, I’ve been changing in the same room with my mom or if I had a questionable bump, there isn’t another person I’d feel more comfortable with looking at it than my mom.
this episode is weird asf lmao why is justin talking about “it’s impossible to make ur partner stop watching porn” 5 minutes in??
lots of ppl like justin are gross and addicted to it
oh that went over my head 😭 I took it as him being objective and saying you can’t make anybody do anything ?
I think this whole episode he seems so off. I know I don’t know any of these people at the end of the day but he just seemed so off and like lowkey tuned out… idk
@@alexm3220 i know what you mean, but he was weirdly aggressive about it lol. he acted like it’s an INSANE ask of someone, maybe he’s projecting
There's nothing weird about that. You can't control what anybody is doing when they're by themselves, simple as that.
The third story was very.. something.
Why call a 7 month pregnant woman who cries over a takeout receipt “unhinged”, but the dude who literally offered divorce and said he hates his wife to this day over a donut argument and that “ruined his whole birthday” needs to feel validated and can’t be called “baby boy” cause it’s disrespectful?
Like, yall can’t call a hormonal woman crazy basically, but not have that same energy with the husband who can eat whatever he wants and isn’t surging with hormones that literally affect your mood. It’s a very weird double standard, and kinda just seems sexist to be real with yall.
No offense intended, just sharing my opinion.
I think their age is just showing. They haven't had kids and they have NO idea what it actually takes...just the tiktok moms version of it.
@@HikingTails yeah, I get that and I hope that’s the case. I just hate seeing this rhetoric come from other women themselves. This just kinda feels like attacking the pregnant and breastfeeding women and I always gotta come out to defend my fellow moms lol
i honestly felt the exact same, and i don't think its just their age. its a mindset that allows boys to be boys and women to be kept in line. it's THEIR baby, not just hers, its her body that's suffering but they chose this path together, and if she ended up saying fuck it and had a donut since he couldn't just empathise a little- i'm sure he would be pissed claiming she is endangering their baby while he is literally making his wife sob, and causes unnecessary stress and pain for her. atp if i were in the wife's position i might just take him up on that offer to divorce because he's showing his true colours right now, and he can have all the donuts he wants in peace. its like he (and the podcast) can't grasp that the same way he misses eating in and having snacks its a billion times worse for her, and yet he is still complaining while he DOES still eat all the shit he wants.
When reading it, it really seemed like she is being verbally abusive. In my head it reminded me of another story we read where the OP called his wife out and said something along the lines of ‘being pregnant isn’t an excuse for being abusive’. They’re both dealing with big, important things. I think all are wrong.
I feel like this has happened before and its always just comes down to plain ignorance. Of course this woman looks 'unhinged' when you know not nearly enough about pregnancy and its effects. Its a shame because the husband did not deserve not close to as much grace as he was given.
This episode showed a different side to Justin bruh wtf he sounds disgusting
I agree, he’s acting like the guys morgan talks about hating
yup
4:33 I was honestly very disgusted with how Justin talked about nudes and how he basically said no matter how your partner feels, the other person will still watch porn and look at nudes they will just hid it. It's definitely giving off middle school boy vibes. I understand that Morgan doesn't care but I still feel like he sounded kinda pigish. Glad hes with someone who doesn't care because he clealry needs that in his life. Don't think I can look at him the same :/
If an AITA poster said the exact same thing Morgan would call it out it’s so weird that she acts like that’s okay
his comments are enough to make me never watch the show again
I think thats a bit like demanding someone never fantasize about anyone other than you. Thats an unproductive thing to think about or try to control. Only watching porn and reading erotica are private moments and have no other actual participants. I think it's an unreasonable ask. However, i do think the right thing to do is just to communicate that this is an unreasonable ask for you instead of doing it secretly.
if i was Morgan i would have cut that first part out of this episode because its a little icky. if its something you do it doesn't have to be yelled to the world. also Morgan seems okay about the fact he watches porn but even if she wasn't okay with it he would still watch it just like he said . i got the ick. men should have filters lol
@@johannabarr4071 100% its crazy she kept it in its not funny and quirky like they probably think it is, it was actually really triggering as someone whos partner has watched it behind my back and im still healing
Thank you for speaking up about Palestine. It means a lot ❤️🍉
Thank you Morgan! ❤
❤
Typical grifter behavior. It's actually kind of disgusting she only did this months after the situation escalated and it became clear the Internet was overwhelmingly pro-Palestine.
She would never support or touch any controversial subject until it became clear she wouldn't get backlash for it. Big ick ew.
@@Yellow_Plus_Red She did it months ago actually watch her episode where she actually starts with it and talks about how shes half Jewish herself but doesn’t condone the genocide ! So before speaking on a situation make sure you have your facts straight! 😊
@@Yellow_Plus_RedOh come on?
She acknowledged it, go shit on someone else who hasn’t.
I hate the guy sleeping with his ex's daughter. Like sure he didn't see her grow up so it's not like a grooming situation. But the age gap is uncomfy for 1 and for 2.... FOR SEVERAL MONTHS HE LOVED HER IN THE WOMB AS HIS DAUGHTER. Lastly the calling him daddy thing, if that was legit something they did while sleeping together, that's really messed up.
Edit to add: he had much more time to deal with the situation emotionally. She's just now processing as a young adult. She's vulnerable.
yep, very icky 🥴
I also think everyone completely glossed over the fact that _he made the first move._ She was venting to him and being vulnerable and he made a move on her that she initially rejected. It’s literally so gross.
@@thylionheart this!!!! I hated that so much because it’s like he totally took a vantage of her and he doesn’t know what type of embarrassment hurt he inflicted on her
He also called her a kid in the post, yuck. "I felt for this kid"
"he had much more time to deal with the situation emotionally. She's just now processing as a young adult. She's vulnerable." this!!
Story 4: YUCK.
I feel like he took advantage of a very vulnerable young woman who has been desperate for a father figure and someone to love her.
Yep, their traumas are nowhere near the same, and the way he sees them as comparable makes me nausous
Right he is the definition of a LOSER. If Im ever 40+ and still hung up on a bad breakup from my early twenties so much so that fucking the child of the person I broke up with, also the child I could’ve been a father to, shoot me. Why do men never heal from shit like women will be physically abused, r*ped, isolated and manage to move on for their on good but a dude will keep going on about the girl that cheated on him in HS. But men are the logical ones 🙄 I hate how dehumanized and demonized women who cheat are too like bruh it’s not the moms fault that their community judged her child for her moms’ actions. That never happens when fathers have affairs like ew
This is some r/aretheallosok shit
Interesting start of the show by Justin? Lmfao
Yea I was about start sleeping and then popped my head up 💀
“The nudes are a vibe though“???
Didn’t expect that, but don’t mind it”???
Coming from your partner? Unsettling…
morgan proudly plays the cool girl role all the time tho of letting her man watch porn and go to strip clubs so i think he’s comfortable checking out women around her she normalized it
it is unsettling though he gives me the ick
Some couples have different boundaries and Morgan and Justin have literally talked about threesomes and shit like that on camera multiple times 😭 calm down
I was looking for this. That’s Soooo weird
@@jadynd1237but then he was basically saying all guys look at it even if they say they don’t
A Jewish queen who knows the difference between humane and inhumane behavior. Thank you Morgan for speaking before most non Jewish people could. ❤️
Morgan, *exhibitionism* is the act of enjoying exposing yourself, *voyeurism* is enjoying to watch
So I’m learning and so wild!! I’ve only heard voyuerism used in the way exibitionism should be
@@TwoHotTakes they get switched a lot, but yes, voyeurism is the act of watching, exhibitionism is the act of being watched
Makes total sense 🤯
It's wild to me that a native English speaker wouldn't know these words.

Don't waste the mustard, but toss a shirt that could be cleaned or repurposed as a rag? 🤔

I’m sorry… I love you guys… but sometimes when it comes to these pregnancy and parenting opinions you guys have, you make it blatantly OBVIOUS you do not have any children.
So true 😂😂
UHM DID ANYONE THINK JUSTIN WAS MAD DISRESPECTFUL IN THE BEGINNING OMG😂💀
The whole episode!!! Ever since they got a house he’s been very different
he’s showing so many red flags now. Morgan needs to rethink her upcoming marriage.
Can someone explain these red flags I don't see them
Are you talking about the nudes thing? Because Morgan seemed okay with it, she even said she saw them too. Every couple is different and what he was saying isn't a "red flag" unless it's something she's not comfortable with, which she seems to be. Maybe don't prescribe your personal relationship boundaries to other couples, and especially don't tell them to divorce because of it (unless there's abuse or something serious happening)? Some couples even enjoy watching p*rn together or gushing about people they both find attractive. It's their business.
Peeps, it's okay to be uncomfortable with Justin's comments, but let's not psychoanalyse their relationship. We don't know them :')
Story 7 is unforgivable. That is absolutely abhorrent behavior. Not only thinking it's okay to let your toddler watch a violent movie, but to react that way by wishing your wife and mother of your children to die and throwing something at her? Name calling aside, not only would we be done, I would've called the police for domestic battery in front of a child. That is absolutely unacceptable, first time or not
exactly! who raised that man child?! that is an abusive relationship, he has called you names in front of your child, refuses to accept that watching a violent film which presumably has an age warning in front of a toddler is not a good idea, and then thinking it's ok to throw things at you and tell you he hates you and hope something bad happens to you during your C section, which is presumably planned for health reasons? when you're recovering from that C section, do you think your husband would be able to cope with helping look after you and the baby and the toddler?!
I agree. You call me a b****, that's going to show your true character, you call me A CU*t, we're done.
I hope op and her babies have escaped and are living their best now
Listening to that story gave me instant anxiety. She needs to gtfo he's an abusive POS and who in their right mind wishes that on their pregnant wife!!
I like some violent or scary movies and shows or sometimes it's Too Much, or sometimes just not up for that, right now. Every guy I've known has been nice and polite about this, whether a boyfriend or friend.
I thought it was bad enough he badgered her into watching something violent when she wasn't into it but then to find out the BABY was there!
Dude needs to lay off the violent shows for HIMSELF, alone, at this point!
And the little baby saying "uh-oh" was so sweet but tearjerking... to me JUST HEARING about it. That is clearly a man with no soul.
She didn't freak out because of the doughnuts!!! She freaked out because of everything else leading up and including the donuts.
She freaked out because her hormones are going crazy. Her body is changing. She can't eat the food she wants. And Her husband is making this about HIM.
She freaked out because her Husband thinks these donuts are so important that they're infringing on his autonomy, but he can't understand that THIS is just a drop of everything else that she's going through.
I'm at risk of gestational diabetes during my pregnancy. I'm taking steps now to hopefully avoid it. If it does happen, I know I won't want to know if my husband has treats because it would hurt my feelings that I wouldn't be able to have what I want when I want. I don't blame op for going out to eat when he's out of the house and keeping it a secret and agree with the therapist they went to, but him saying that he wants a divorce and that he still hates her and that it was borderline abuse over his birthday doughnuts was extreme. He could've kept them at work and ate them at work to be considerate of his wife. He almost sounds like he has some personal issues with food he needs to work through with a therapist regarding food insecurity if he's throwing that much of a fit over a TEMPORARY change to his diet. Chances are, it isn't even a 9 month change considering women generally get tested for gestational diabetes around 28 weeks, unless they're high risk for developing it. I am actually getting tested at 6 weeks because I'm high risk due to family history.
All in all I think he is the a hole and I'm giving some additional leeway and grace to the wife because being pregnant sucks in more ways than that and he should be a bit more grateful she's carrying his child for her and staying with him despite his temper tantrums
Take on story three was appalling. He was literally flaunting it in front of her at first and she was miserable and he acted like he was some sort of victim. It’s not the same thing 34:43 as what Justin was saying here. She as GD, she can’t violent cravings, is pregnant, and can’t eat anything. She’s not unhinged, she’s pregnant. The lack of empathy is shocking. OP is awful. Women are considered horrible moms if they don’t do absolutely everything right, why is it so hard for men to give up the same things they expect their wives to. He is a horrible husband, she could have reacted better but she IS PREGNANT. Of course she cried
Justin is grossing me out in the beginning of this, if my boyfriend said nudes on his timeline were I vibe I’d feel so uncomfortable
He was clearly joking.
@@dandotvid I guess I misunderstood
When they have a fight and theres weird tension he shouldint be on at all i feel like morgan forces him to be on after a fight in a few episodes u can tell they had attention between them why go on youtube then let him set a episode out no big deal
Grow up
I felt kinda weird about the beginning also,, not a huge deal just a little bit ???? Idk??
Story 5, if I were someone who liked to be waxed and my mom were a professional with a business, AND I can get it for free? Absolutely I am letting my mom do it. I have a hard time trusting people I don't know especially with my body, but you know who I can trust? My mom.
Come on, Lauren, even I knew Morgan wants a carnival wedding!
Hahaha I knew I just forgot the word carnival 🎡 🤣
story 3- does anyone think that maybe she can’t exactly control her emotions because she’s pregnant?! all those hormones can ruin a woman.
Like she's pregnant and has gestational diabetes both which greatly affects your mood. She literally can't eat those things that she craves because she could loose the baby or her life, gestational diabetes is a big deal!!
I’m sorry but yall crazy for siding with the husband at all. He hates her- literally says hates her! Because his pregnant, hormonal wife who has a very difficult health condition had a meltdown when she felt unsupported. Not violent, not dangerous or intimidating, just upset. He threatened divorce over *donuts*. Please look at how he is writing this, he was still eating delivery and watching netflix when he was yelled at not considering support at ALL. Thus sounds like it was her breaking point. This man has no empathy and is not the asshole for ‘bringing home donuts’ but IS the asshole for disregarding and being unsupportive of his wife until she snaps. I am horrified
1:24:20 I hope your kids don’t watch this podcast considering Justin’s inappropriate comments and behavior about 🌽. it’s so disgusting and damaging. especially if children watch it. ew.
I agree with her “rules” in her wedding. I do not agree with judging her and considering her “exhibitionism” for breastfeeding in public. That’s what our breast was made for. Nobody breastfeeds to get attention, we do it because it’s natural and the best for our babies.
This!!! The OP in that one had a lot of low-key judgement aimed at her sister in her post
She says at the top of the post she doesn't like her sister.
This!! Story one is giving you have no kids and haven’t breastfed… I’m a bf mom and there’s no exhibitionism or attention seeking it’s actually incredibly stressful,.. very out of touch take here imo
This!! I dont think asking the photografer not to take pics of her breastfeeding is an AH move but being mean with her and calling her a exibitionist just because she's feeding her kid is a lil shitty
It does not sound like the sister is simply feeding her baby when hungry. FFS the photographer didn’t get any photos of her because she had her boob out the entire time. Do you really think the baby was feeding during the entire duration of the wedding and reception?
The way Lauren said the “ sacrifices he is doing” got me so upset, what about the sacrifice she is doing to keep her baby and herself alive? He can eat that kind of food every other day, but she has to wait for months.
Exactly!
Exactly. Men getting praised for their “sacrifice”
It’s giving unchecked misogyny
#3 absolutely the AH. Seriously no compassion. This is my second pregnancy with GD and I’m in month 9 feeling like I’m losing my mind. I’m literally eating chicken and broccoli almost every meal. Suck it up while you’re with your wife. It’s only temporary for the both of you.
Story 4: I’m sorry but he took advantage of her when she was clearly vulnerable and young. He didn’t do anything illegal, but he is a major asshole. It’s creepy and just inappropriate in my opinion.
Can’t even listen to this one past 5 min. This is such a shocking side of Justin. Saying every guy is watching porn, and if they say they aren’t then they’re lying. Just because he prob has a porn addiction doesn’t mean all guys do. I found it actually really disrespectful that he said that, especially in front of Lauren, especially at Morgan’s place of work. Like this is still her job. Imagine if he said the same thing at a work function, going around the office talking about how all guys watch porn and you can’t stop them. And then saying what girls he has seen nudes of. So frickin weird I don’t think I can listen to him anymore
I feel so bad for lauren having to sit next to him through that convo
It’s weird. Mostly because it seems like a conversation they haven’t gotten into privately. And he’s just there casually talking about how all partners will lie about watching porn like, come on
This is such a weird take to me. He was obviously joking around but he was also responding to topics Morgan brought up - she was the one that mentioned porn.
Yea felt like he was projecting bc HE would never stop watching.
Breastfeeding is a very natural thing I wouldn’t consider what she was doing as exhibitionism, however it is her wedding so she’s not at fault for not wanting that on camera.
It’s been awhile since we recorded but I thought she has said her sister’s actions in the past before having a baby were exhibitionism? Did she directly call breastfeeding exhibitionism!?
@@Lauren-ib3okI believe she was! A lot of people view breastfeeding as a borderline sexual thing (it isn’t) and believe you have to nurse the child in a private setting only.
She said that apparently the sister's husband broke up with her because she was an exhibitionist, but it doesn't specify why he thought so (though it definitely seems like he got this impression AFTER they had children). It's hard to tell whether he got this impression just from her breastfeeding or if it was based on something else, but it definitely seems like the family only thinks that because of how she breastfeeds.
OP does say that she doesn't have an issue with breastfeeding in public, but basically that she should use a cover or go to a more private area other than a bathroom (which... Not every public place has a private area besides a bathroom, so I'm not sure what she meant there).
I'm conflicted about the story because while I think it's fair to not want her breastfeeding to appear in wedding photos, but the way she talks about her sister is so judgemental and unkind. She's a newly single mom trying to raise a baby and a toddler, and it's fair that she was hurt to be ostracized from the rest of her family at her sister's wedding. Unless she's toxic in ways not specified in the post, I don't see why OP couldn't have just talked to her and explained about the photos. It kinda seems like they're just a really uptight family and that they're judging her for doing a very natural thing.
@@Lauren-ib3ok im not sure but it seemed like op was grouping them together
The two are however not mutually exclusive
Not having to eat Cheesecake Factory and McDonald’s for literally a couple months (gestational diabetes is diagnosed at 27 weeks typically) for solidarity with your partner who is carrying your child is such a little ask. Also, as someone who had gestational diabetes with both babies, you can enjoy the foods you like as long as you pair it with more protein and fiber! Some pasta with veggies and chicken for example keeps your sugars in check, and it sounds like her husband could also learn a bit more balance. Not going to out every single week is not that big of deal if it makes your partner feel supported by you.
Exactly, it’ll be way more supportive if he joined her in her dietary restrictions. Although having a treat once in a while outside the home won’t hurt nobody, it seems like this guy has a serious fast food addiction
Story 5- I don’t think it’s weird for a parent of the same sex to wax their daughter/son. It really depends on the relationship. My daughter(23) and I are very open with each other. We walk around completely naked in front of each other all the time. I wouldn’t think twice about waxing her and don’t think she’d care if I did. We all have the same setup
Yeah especially if she does it professionally. They literally see it everyday. I don’t think it’s weird as a woman for your mom to see you naked
If I were someone who provided waxing as a professional service, I’d be fine waxing my daughter if she asked me to (at a reasonable age). In a way, I’d prefer it because 1-she’d be saving money and 2-I would know it was being done properly, not causing her skin injury, and under sanitary conditions. But everyone has their comfort level. Morgan’s family speak very openly about sex. Most families aren’t like that and would find it strange and even inappropriate. But for her family, it’s totally normal. This is no different imo.
Agreed whether it was that or need I someone else to look down there, besides a doctor...I'm going to my mom
Story 5. Idk if its me but i feel like getting your mom to wax you is not that crazy. I mean I’ve asked my mom (shyly) to look at my regions if i felt something could be off. Maybe its a cultural difference?
Justin always gives not for the girlies type vibes to me😔 every episode he is on lately has had me on the edge 😭🤣
he literally seems like the best partner imo. he completely seemed for the girls. he defended the pregnant woman. he defended the rock collecting. he said to run at the last story bc the husband is abusive.. i think he seemed a little stiff this episode but he def is still for the girlies. he’s one of the most mature men i’ve heard on a podcast fr.
I just wanna say that until you’re pregnant , you won’t ever know how it feels to have intense cravings for foods and intense emotions on top of that. I don’t blame you guys for not understanding, but I literally cried over anything and everything when I was pregnant and was triggered by food since i had HUGE cravings. I cried about Taco Bell once!!!!!!!! Haha, maybe you girls will get it one day!
I cry like this not pregnant so I get it 😂 why do you think Justin talks the way he does about being so open minded for pregnancy
It honestly felt like a lot, from both OP and the wife. He was deeply inconsiderate and some of her expectations and reactions were just unreasonable. It was an easy ESH for me.
@@TwoHotTakes his response was great! Everyone had a valid response. Pregnancy is hard and scary. I don’t want any more kids after my ONE ☝️ 😅💓
@@diamcole I agree although I’d like more context on the wife’s part considering pregnancy is a great excuse to have hormones and emotional imbalances…. But abuse is never acceptable . If she’s just crying and upset, then that’s justified in my opinion. Having gestational diabetes on top of pregnancy? So terrible
@@emileedublu I feel you. The hormonal imbalances and emotional outbursts definitely make sense, gd is horrible and she must be so uncomfortable. 😣 I think the tipping point came when I heard after a couple sessions, the therapist chose to highlight where they both could have handled things a touch differently. The compromise they came to seemed like the fairest solution imo. Granted, my partner and I have very very different diets lmao (he’s almost entirely plant based and I practically bathe in animal byproducts) so this is something I’ve mulled over quite a bit.
Thinking that ALL men have to be watching porn is honestly sad and wrong . People wake up and realize most porn is violent, under age girls and teaches men to objectify women ):
i really wish porn wasn’t so normalized, it makes me really uncomfortable :/
Justins comment at the start of the video made me super upset too 😭 Like seriously? What does that say about people if they're so addicted tbey can't respect their partners wishes and lie to them all the time
I think there's a balance. You just have to know what to look for. I only watch porn occasionally but I always search for real couple stuff if I do. I am instantly turned off if I feel like the woman isn't enjoying it, and it feels liberating to support a real couple enjoying themselves and sharing it. But, to each their own. I think not watching it is 100% valid, but I think if you do watch it with a sense of that understanding, there's nothing wrong with that either. Mainstream porn is the problem.
Nobody on there said all men have to be watching porn. That was not the point at all. Morgan said at one point that she saw some of the nudes he was talking about, too. He was just saying if you try to control your partner, a lot of partners will pretend to agree and then go behind your back. He did not even say that was right or justified. Again, we need to stop assuming and putting words in others' mouths.
@@charlene9489Yes!! This!!
Story 3 is wild considering all that happened in a few weeks. The big blow up, threatening divorce, marriage counseling, finding middle ground, and then this. She's only 7 months but they test for it at 24-28wks.
Morgan has been talking about her carnival wedding since she got engaged… Lauren please don’t act like you’re hearing this for the first time 😅😅
Justin just gives me the ick every episode
Me too & this one was especially bad
I found the stigma around breastfeeding so odd! I am from Argentina and here everyone breastfeeds in public, no one bats an eye, the baby needs to eat. I never thought that it’s something so “taboo” in the US that they use breastfeeding covers or go away to a private room to do it. You learn something new everyday 😅
I get upset with breastfeeding at certain times and places and I'm the only person like this I know in Kenya. A few years back this man stopped a woman from breastfeeding at a trendy cafe and it was on the news for weeks; people were outraged, people were confused.
The issue is not breast-feeding in itself, in this story the issue is that the sister constantly has her boobs out. Babies don’t need to be on the tit 24/7.
Dios totalmente, no entiendo por que tienen tantos taboos
Here on the Navajo nation mothers they breast-feed everywhere and I do agree that here in the United States. It is very taboo. I don’t understand why I exclusively breast-fed my last two kids due to they were preemies, but yeah I mean breast is best and the man should’ve also talked to the sister and said you know I have a child for wedding. She probably would’ve understood. I don’t know.
Weird vibe u can always tell when justins mad
he’s so rude this episode
Super weird, changed my perspective of him a lot this episode
Justin's always rude. Morgan routinely calls men like Justin out. She deserves better.
I thought I was overthinking it but yes he’s definitely in a mood 💀✋
I’ve never watched an episode where Justin didn’t act like an AH
I know men and women who both have and respect the boundary in their relationship to not watch porn.
My friend and her husband personally don't watch porn for these two reasons:
1) Some people don't want their partner masterbating to other people. While there's nothing wrong with being attracted to people other than your partner, there is realisticly little to no difference between your partner masterbating to porn on The Hub than masterbating to a nude of your neighbor down the street.
2) Sex work, especially under capitalism, is inherently dubious and many of the people involved are not there 100% consensually. Porn also contributes to higher rates of domestic violence, IPSV, and rape, especially against women. Porn has also been reported as the highest contributor to increased sex trafficking rates. It causes many people to have increased dissatisfaction in the bedroom/romantic relationships. Porn consumption can even be linked to disfunctional reward systems in the brain and can even cause prefrontal cortex erosion. And lastly, due to the specific way women are portrayed in porn (even illustrated porn), people who consume porn tend to have consistently more negative views of women than those who do not.
People who ask their partners not to view porn aren't living in some fantasy world. It's a very reasonable boundary to draw.
i think the boundary should be way wayyyy more common, porn is damaging to everyone
@@wumpy0106 Right?!?! I really hate how people have painted women who don't like their partner watching porn as insecure. Of course, some people are, especially if they don't hold themselves to the same standard as they hold their partner to, but not wanting someone to masterbate to other people is totally understandable.
Plus, most people I know that are against porn hold that stance due to the issues it causes that I listed in my original comment. It's a moral stance. If my partner watched porn after we agreed that it wasn't welcome in our relationship, I'd be more disgusted that they continued to support such an industry rather than the fact that they crossed the established boundary. I would still be upset that they betrayed my trust, though, of course
Yeah completely. Justins comment was completely shocking and so gross. It made me feel so insecure im my relationship too, since I have that boundary set and lots of past trauma with unfaithful partners regarding porn 😭
@@rebmoo321 felt 🥲
I personally don’t like when men, especially your fiancé speaks about p@rn and other womens body in front of you, especially with audience, it’s so disrespectful and uncomfortable. Guess it depends on how u see it.
Thank you I was looking for this I was originally listening on Spotify and HAD to see if someone literally anyone was going to say this it was so off putting
@@_KylaHeaton_I FELT THIS WAY TOO
This!!! I came running to the comments
Same…
Yes, I don't know if it was supposed to be a joke, but it was incredibly disrespectful. Morgan deserves better.
story 2 pissed me off 😭 he just sounds like a baby that doesn’t want to clean himself up. he doesn’t want to waste the mustard but then he just throws his shirt away?? i’d be so annoyed if i was his partner
Justin behaved very rude during this entire episode, if you don't want to be there just don't dude
Everyone keeps saying this but I’m not sure how? I’m not great at picking up social cues though
@@Bea-ni6vkI pick up social cues really well I think. But I didn't. But I don't know him well??
Yah, I don't see that he did anything wrong.
huh?????? i didn’t pick up on that at all
wtf he is rntirely there and he is being supportive. maybe he zones out but its not that deep
Disagree with the pregnancy story because he made her pregnant she has gestational diabetes, which is not a condition she has outside of pregnancy so if he made her pregnant, he gets to go on the journey of her dietary restrictions during her pregnancy as well
And he had the audacity to call her “chubby” she’s pregnant, that’s sort of expected when you’re growing another person!
He made her pregnant? What it sounds like is it was consensual. everybody would be like it’s your body your choice if she decided to get an abortion. But somehow this man needs to change his whole diet because his gf has the issues??? It’s his body his choice! He can eat whatever he wants! Your statement sounds like it’s coming from a place where The relationship needs to be the same during the pregnancy because that’s what’s fair. Sounds toxic.
@@Chem_-jp5emoh my gosh when he called her chubby but he can’t go a week without Cheesecake Factory??? Uhhhhhhmmmm?
It's not necessary. I lived through GD. I didn't make my bf change anything. You need to find other healthy alternatives to eat food you want. Sugar free versions are available that don't spike the glucose levels. Making adjustments for yourself doesn't mean you partner has to suffer.
@@samanthawilson6159thank you. Although I do feel for the woman who’s pregnant, asking you S/O to not eat specific foods bc you can’t seems a bit ridiculous especially if he’s making it a point to eat it away from her.
My mom had gestational diabetes when she was pregnant with my little sister and it was absolute torture for her. I don’t think the pregnant lady was unhinged, I think she’s hormonal from creating a human and probably irritated as fuck that she can’t even give in to any of her pregnancy cravings. she’s being a great mom already by looking out for her baby. that husband is a selfish asshole
Looks like Justin is going to hav a rude awakening when Morgan becomes pregnant.
And, the girls calling the mom to be, unhinged is f'd..
They are in for a wild ride for sure……..
If you kept listening to the episode, they did change their tune.😅
@@annakursi7069 I listened to it, and I've watched other THT's with Lauren..
If you're not a mom or around many moms of young children, you won't get. It's clear the girls just have no clue lol
My advice is to maybe not cover stories involving pregnancy and hormones unless you have a guest who has experience with it. The lack of perspective here is insane.
Totally agree, the amount of times they have had a story about pregnancy, breastfeeding, or general parenting is so frustrating because they just don't know the reality of it all. They need to have someone on the show with experience for those stories.
Story# 3. Gestational diabetes is only tested at the 7 month mark meaning he would only need to eat healthy with her for 2 more months not even the full 9 and he had the nerve to utter the words divorce. 🙄
Story #3: Wait until you're pregnant. When I was pregnant I cried over a messed up McDonald's order. She's not overreacting. Having gestional diabetes because your pregnant isn't fair. I would have cried too.
7 months pregnant. McDonalds forgot my McNugget sauce, that's all it took for me to breakdown sobbing and declaring "I'll never eat again!". Husband drove back around to get sauce. I was happily eating my nuggets 10 minutes later. Pregnancy hormones are no joke!
Ive been pregnant and yes it is hard, but it doesn’t mean she has the right to berate him and abuse him over him eating. He didn’t eat it at home, he did it in his car and did not tell her so it wouldn’t hurt her after their therapy appt, per what the therapist recommended and the therapist said she was being unreasonable. She is pretty controlling and borderline abusive to try to control everything he eats. She could easily cause him to develop an eating disorder by acting like this. Jealousy is understandable, but to ruin his birthday or to berate him over him going to eat in his car, which he kept from her and didn’t rub it in her face, is absolutely unhinged. I also raise a diabetic child, and he knows that just because of his condition, it’s not other peoples fault for eating things he cannot, and he is 5 years old…. She only has to deal with this for 2 months, my 5 year old will have to deal with this his entire life. I also had a condition where i threw up everytime after i ate so i aboided it even though i was starving for the whole 9 months and i still did not abuse my husband just because he ate, and she only has to do this for 2 months….
@@mikilynn471Abuse him how? By crying?
Thanks for offering your platform to bring up a fundraiser for medical care! They don’t have clean water and safe food so everyone is getting sick. 😢 They have nothing…
Pulled over to read the comments,,, so glad we all feel the same about story 3! I was getting heated in my car haha. The waxing story didn’t strike me as weird because it’s her mom’s profession. Odds are it is viewed more clinical than anything. If her mom wasn’t a professional waxer that would be a bit stranger, but getting professional services for free as a college student sounds like a win to me.
Why is Justin watching porn right before the stories !? 🥴 I couldn’t get over that the whole video. It felt like a reddit story situation come to life. There’s a time and place!! 😂
Pretty sure it was a joke lol
@@tomorrow1wb I couldn’t tell! 😭
The husband is dead wrong. It’s not 9 months you usually don’t even find out until 26ish weeks you can’t do a 3-4 month diet. You should want to support her. The issue is you don’t love her.
Story 3 baby daddy is showing his cards through his writing and doesn’t know it. he is clearly TA and you can tell by the way he talks about his pregnant wife. It’s clear he isn’t telling the whole story. And the cherry on top. if you are on a page about asking if you are wrong, why can’t you handle the answer? it’s what you asked for no? He just wanted to be babied
Story 4- EW EW EW EW EW the age gap alone is gross
Yeah agreed. I thought Justin and Morgans revenge take was quite bizarre...and gross
Story 3: I don't think he loves his wife... it's a temporary situation and he was ignoring and dangling the food infront of her from the start he doesn't care or feel sorry for her he didn't try to hide it and not make it obvious from the beginning before going to couple consulting! So she's ofc gonna be mad and freak out if after what they gone through he go and bring the whole box home he could've eat some outside and had empathy for his wife to at least go buy some other box or something to disguise the remaining donuts to but them in the other fridge without his wife knowing! But he is a manchild who doesn't care about his wife and her TEMPORARY issue that she only had because she's PREGNANT with their child....
If he was accommodating and caring husband she wouldn't be angry sad and upset with him in the first place he literally can eat outside she only blow up at him after so many times of him eating infront of her not giving two fks about her!
He's just disgusting and she doesn't deserve him
Idk if it’s just me but why is Justin sooooo crabby this episode???
No I agree!! I was combing the comments to see if it was just me - he seems off. It's been a while because the last episode I remember him being so punchy was in the fall, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who picked up on the irritation he's exuding.
Listen, i have 3 kids. I am a mom as well and i know that pregnancy is hard. I did not get blessed with a easy pregnancy ever. Multiple health problems, bed rest. The works. But that being said people act like pregnancy is a disability. I understand uncontrollable hormones, but she is partially to blame. She hasnt tried to understand her husband's past trauma at all and food trauma is a big thing. It also tends to lead to uncontrollable reactions.
